The gameplay has received mixed reviews, with some praising its fluidity, responsiveness, and engaging mechanics, while others criticize it for being broken or undermined by poor control setups.

“Excellent 2D shooter with an interesting time-attack mechanic on each stage that varies enemy placement and even how many bosses you face.”
“Fancy music, simple but addictive gameplay... what does a serious gamer need more?”
“The gameplay is a broken, easily beaten mess.”
“Gundeadligne at first seems to be a rather competent shooter in the first 2 minutes of gameplay; however, the experience gradually diminishes quickly as soon as you start getting into it.”
“While the gameplay is what you would expect from a Japanese-made bullet hell, some things are quite off.”

The story in the game is moderately engaging, presented through text screens and character art between stages, which some may find unappealing. While the narrative isn't particularly deep, it is well-written and serves as a continuation of the first game's Touhou storyline, making it easier to follow for returning players. Overall, the plot is straightforward, especially for those familiar with the series.
“It's not the most enticing way to tell a story, but the story itself isn't shallow, nor is it badly written or translated.”
“The 2nd game in the Gundemonium series continues the Touhou storyline, featuring a similar difficulty level and many characters.”
“The story is presented between stages of the game, with a screen of text alongside character art.”
“The storyline is moderate.”
“The story is simple if you played the first one.”

The game offers significant replay value through its variety of characters and multiple extra modes, despite lacking the depth of character customization found in similar titles. However, the restrictive gem system may limit accessibility for less skilled players, potentially hindering their ability to fully experience each stage. Overall, the replayability is considered strong, with enough content to keep players engaged.
“The gem system is pretty restricting, and gives the feeling that only very good players will be able to see everything each stage has to offer; however, you could argue that it adds replay value, not that there isn't enough replay value already with all the extra modes.”
“Though it fails to deliver the same depth as the character customization system found in gundemonium, this variety in characters still manages to add significant replay value to the game, and is an adequate stand-in for the aforementioned system.”
“One minor complaint, the gem system is pretty restricting, and gives the feeling that only very good players will be able to see everything each stage has to offer, although I suppose you could argue that it adds replay value (not that there isn't enough replay value already with all the extra modes).”

The game's optimization features a dynamic difficulty adjustment system that responds to player performance; however, many users find this implementation to be poorly executed and lacking in effectiveness.
“The game adjusts its difficulty depending on your performance, but the way it handles it is a joke.”
“Another thing to point out is that the game will either decrease or increase its own difficulty depending on your performance during a session, similar to other games in the genre.”
