Another great shooter from Treasure that is just.... way too hard. Its grueling difficulty, paired with its absurdly complex weapon and scoring systems and its significant length (for a shmup) leaves it as a great game, just one I got pretty exhausted by. It sucks because I really adore parts of this game.

Jonathan Blow is a trash man with garbage opinions, but this game is a good puzzle game.

It's not a game for everyone, but the world would be a better place if it was.

how... how are NONE of them good

Perhaps I would like to go to these caves of Qud.

Criminally underrated! One of the best arcade puzzlers I've ever played. Very easy to get lost in the feeling playing this one.

This is the kind of game I get mad I didn't come up with

So uh..... none of us gonna talk about the transphobia? Cool cool cool

Incredible! Such a good Traditional RL! I love the combat design. Every job feels radically different, like playing a different game. There's also a ton of ways to build out your character.

Everytime Gex says words with his mouth, I remember video games were a mistake

why does his head get big? WHY DOES HIS HEAD GET BIG???

Really cool game, but is hampered by some really frustrating design. More specifically: the bosses are awful!

Much better than the first entry, in large part due to shortened boss fights.
