Gratia - Second Earth

Gratia: Second Earth is a horizontal flying shooter from Jaleco, released in 1995 for arcade systems and Final Burn Alpha Neo.

The game presents a distinctive view in which the ground fills much of the screen. Enemies appear in both air-to-air and air-to-ground roles, requiring the player to switch between the ship’s primary fire and its air-ground laser.

Its colorful environments, detailed sprites, and zoom effects are among its notable strengths. The game is also clearly inspired by Darius, offering an enjoyable, action-focused experience for fans of classic horizontal shooters.
