This is a manic freeware shmup very well done. It doesn't completely revolutionize the genre, but it brings some rather good ideas in addition to showing the talent of its designers. It starts with the classic choice of aircraft type: the slow direct fire and rapid fire to flares. Your gear is equipped with two satellites, respectively static and rotating. An extended pressure on shooting laser triggers a more powerful attack but slows the craft by putting the force field visible, it's classic in the world of manic shooters. The game brings still two novelties: two special gauges. One measures your rate of destruction, plus the more enemies you shoot, the more you will maintain a high status and the better your reward at the end of level. The second measures the use of special attack, the more enemies you shoot with the laser, the more powerful it becomes. But advance is rather slow, so patience... And finally, the smart bomb, which was ultimately a purely protective function. The game is very well designed and programmed. The graphics are colorful and relatively clear, even if sometimes the color of projectiles merges with that of the decorations, but making a gaffe, we see them. Music is truly excellent, warriors and futuristic themes, with acceptable sound effects. The difficulty is high overall, and frankly demented starts at level 4 ... the levels are frantic, rapid fire and adjusted sub-bosses. But none of this will match the bosses, truly monstrous ... monstrous in size, appearance, and their attacks. You get demonic shots, elaborate forms that will trap ship. A great doujin that deserves to be known. |
