I remember finding "Alpha Mission" at a yard sale when I was younger. I paid about $5 for it. I got my money's worth, but I'd have been annoyed if I'd spent any more on it. :)
I picked this up on NES many years ago. and yeah the inverted letters seems rather sadistic, on the level of that 'oh no!' downgrade from parodius. canon seems like an odd powerup, LOL! so much I didn't really know about the game... if I can someday get a hold of the copy I bought again I'm gonna have to give this one another try.
At the risk of sounding pedantic, this looks more like a halfway step between Xevious and Slap Fight to me. Slap Fight looks like a much better game, though (even if it is brutally hard! 😆).

Sheeld! This looks kinda neat but the reverse powerups are so silly.
The thinner diagonal stripes appear to move, the thicker ones don't, huh.
