Backloggd Game of the Week (20 Dec – 26 Dec, 2022).
So I don't really play shmups? I think Ive played like one or two at actual arcades and that's about it, havent got anything against them, just not really my thing. So I don't really know what my opinion is worth on this but here we go.
It was pretty cool visually. The bosses (especially the non robot ones) had a lot of personality conveyed just in their movesets and I was sort of invested in seeing just what the hell else the game was going to throw at me. That being said, there is no way in hell I could have beat this without infinite lives.
Again, I don't play these games so my playstyle mainly involves spamming the attack button, tokenly trying to avoid projectiles until I get hit and adding another credit. So no comment on difficulty/balance for people trying to get good at this. Anyways, it was an entertaining 30 or so minutes and Id even replay it with someone else if they offered.
