Had to replay this to make sure I wasn't crazy about the weapon imbalance. After testing every weapon, Homing was the only thing giving me the consistent firepower and range I needed, S. Laser and Explode were okayish, everything else was totally ill-equipped to kill anything. And then one of the end-game bosses has the audacity to throw a nullifier at you that makes homing weapons useless.

It has generally fine gameplay and good background art if you can make it past that, but I couldn't get into this. I don't want to play a shmup where only 1 of 8 weapons feels comfortable, that just irks me in a deeply personal way.
