Thunder Cross is a horizontally scrolling shooter video game developed and published by Konami for arcades. It was released in October 1988 in Japan and January 1989 in North America. A sequel, Thunder Cross II, was published in 1991. Owing to several similarities, Space Manbow (1989) may also be considered a spin-off.
