this game feels like a theme park ride except the ride is also trying to blow you up with laser beams
i am very unfamiliar with the genre, but every stage, enemy, and boss here feels so lovingly crafted, each aspect packed with depth and stratgies to uncover. the music is insanely rad, and getting into the rhythm of enemy attack patterns and level layouts feels really satisfying. it's beginner friendly too, thankfully for me, with level selection and up to eight continues earn-able through gameplay. through these systems i felt totally encouraged to replay stages and engage with the mechanics more.
eventually, you'll rip off the bandaid and go for a full game run, 1-1 to "ending" and feel badass doing it. then it's time for more research, more iteration, more cycles, because that "ending"...? well, uh, as i learned with System Erasure's subsequent game, the "end" is rarely ever the end.
a thrilling experience and also screw black garlic, black onion is where it at

Awesome game but I had some control issues witching between the melee sword mode and back to the ship
One of these days I'm going to beat this game. After failing, today is not that day.
Game is great, plays well, looks beautiful, killer soundtrack.
Don't Give Up.

Never really played a shmup or bullet hell but I found quite a lot of enjoyment from this one. The graphics and music are really cool and the gameplay is super fast paced and challenging. I especially loved mastering some of the bosses. Some of the storytelling was a little bit too obfuscated for my liking and the final level has an INSANE punishment that I do not agree with whatsoever, I'd be lying if I said this wasn't a really good game however.
Changed my life.
This game is really good but also oh god that second loop completely demolished me. Felt hype as hell and finally truly understand the appeal of bullet hell but I am just not built for that second loop. Shame, seems really cool.
Music also slaps

It's very frustrating to get to the end of the game and then realize that you could reach the true ending but you only have one chance or else you get sent back to the beginning. But, at the same time this game is very beginner friendly in terms of shoot-em ups, has an interesting aesthetic, interesting mechanics all to it's own, and is on Steam. Every other shoot-em up that is worth your time isn't that accessible. So I have no choice but to praise it.
I can't tell you how pissed off I was when I realized I just blew my shot and have to start all over. The game becomes a cakewalk the second time through so it doesn't take too long to get back to the end and try again. I can't say that for most shoot-em ups.
Soundtrack is pretty good too.

Ill always come back to play it just for the music. And the hidden story waiting to be uncovered.
primeiro jogo de navinha que zerei na vida, e pqp, viciei, q jogo desgraçadamente bom, acho q ele é bem amigável a quem está iniciando no genero, mas sem abrir mão da dificuldade, visualmente é incrível a palheta de cores, a arte dos inimigos e tudo mais, são muito bem feitos. Trilha sonora insana de frenética que ajuda a dar aquela força de vontade que tá indo embora na ultima vida. Jogão!
Confesso que agora estou entusiasmado pra desbravar mais shmups.
