I know it is very unlikely, but I guess here may be the place to ask - Does anyone remember the name of a Horizontal Space Shooter in which you can get power up that give you like a robo-dog that runs around on the ground or a robo-eagle that flies around with you shooting enemies? (Pretty sure they were assists rather than you turning into them, but I could be wrong). As I remember those were like the "main" power ups in the game. I can't remember what year it was from sadly, but looking at these, I would say it looks graphically similar to the ones from around 1989. Any ideas on this would be greatly appreciated! :)

It is possibly that, but I am not sure. Definitely not exactly how my brain remembers it!

I cant remember a game where there were an Orange and a Red ship just like the one in video's cover but only red/Orange (not with white cannons) with blue glass like in the coveru could control The Orange one with your mouse and another person could control the Red one with the keyboard, i remember u could get invencible while pressing alt+f12 or something like that and there were some enemies that would give u special bullets, the blue one was a super fast shooting boost, the Red one would give u missils, there were Green, yellow etc... and u had to collect fruits dropped from bosses to get lives, there were ballons with creates that u could break to get "extra Black shooters" that would double your shooting capacity but if u hit the ballon the create would fall, the first boss was like a train and the game only has 4/5 levels, if im right u could use a shock gun boost only on the 4th level and u could put your name in the end, the letters appeareance were like light Orange argile it was super cool...

Player had a small ship with which he travelled planets as levels and tried to kill the (lizard? they were green) invaders from each planet while he could grapple small npc's in the belly of his ship and save them in the end of the level. If i remember correcly the player could use napalm bombs, enemy-seeking missiles but i don't remember much more. The map could be visited as a whole from either side, you would eventually reach the place you passed something like a circle . It was really cool and if anyone knows or remembers i would appreciate it !

I'm looking for an arcade game I played back in the 90s.. its a vertical shooter game, the setting was in space where you can choose between a male and female pilot. the distinguishing feature of this game probably is the weapon system. from what i remember, it is like an option that follows the ship. one type is red. it fires different burst shots depending on how long you charge it. at mid charge it fires fire dragon-like shots. at max it unleashes a huge fire bird flapping and killing all enemies in the screen. the other type is blue, and more like the laser type. This, I don't remember this on as much as the red one, but I think it fires different sizes of laser pillars.
