Gaia Seed is a space ship side scrolling shooter that has you fly as a spaceship fighting other space ships arcade style.
While you might see this as another typical space shooter, I think in general it has the right amount of difficulty that allows you to see how good and fun the game is.
There are a total of 7 stages each having you fight a boss at the end apart from stage 5 which is the only stage to contain a miniboss in-between.
What I find very unique about this game... apart from the atrocious ENGRISH; though honestly if you're someone who speaks English who has to say things in a language you don't know it would sound just as bad as how it sounds for the Japanese guy narrating in English in this game clearly not knowing what he's saying.
Anyway the unique thing I found about this game is how it contains a BOSS LIMIT timer to where if you don't defeat the boss in the time frame given, the boss actually dies, however as a cavoite you take damage for not killing it within the proper time frame.
However something unique the game does with this is decide your ending towards the end of the game during the final boss.
If you get to the final mechanical turtle boss it has 2 stages:
1. Regular Turtle which then becomes giant mech turtle
2. Angel Ball, after wasting all the time within the Boss limit, you actually see this thing appear and it doesn't attack you.
If you kill the Mech Turtle how you would any other boss, you get a bad ending.
If you decide to not kill the turtle and let the timer expire you come face to face with the Angel ball, if you kill it before it's boss limit timer runs out, you get a different a bad ending.
To get the true good ending, you have to just... survive and let both timer run out... and you get the happy ending about how humanity has to become holy-er and connect with nature.
Really a nice ending... only thing is it becomes hilarious with it's atrocious narration.
Still though the sound track and overall gameplay make this very unique and fun, and I'm not expecting FINAL FANTASY 7, PERSONA 5, HALO, or YAKZUA/LIKE A DRAGON levels of storytelling, but if it's fun. Then I'm happy.
