This week on the Cocktail Mode podcast, Andy and Dave are locking onto their targets, blasting into deep space, and celebrating a massive milestone; the 30th anniversary of Taito's legendary 1996 polygon shmup masterwork: RayStorm!

We take on the spectacular vertical shooter that brought the iconic "Ray" trilogy into the third dimension. We’ll also break down the other games in the series RayForce (1994) and RayCrisis (1998). We reminisce about piloting the R-Gray ships, the sweeping cinematic camera angles and the massive fleet battles.

To celebrate three decades of arcade excellence, we’ve shaken up a pair of cocktails fit for the cockpit.
