The gameplay is characterized by tight and challenging mechanics, featuring three distinct characters with unique abilities and a scoring system that rewards risky play. Players can utilize a bullet time mechanic to convert enemy bullets into collectible gold cubes, enhancing the strategic depth. While the game is visually appealing and offers a modern twist on the bullet hell genre, its reliance on precise ability usage may deter casual players.
“It's challenging, but you have enough mechanics to survive.”
“Gameplay-wise, it features three characters with different shot types and ship stats, with a rather interesting scoring system that encourages (or somewhat even forces) playing very dangerously for a bigger score boost.”
“The slowdown mechanic and the bomb charging mechanic through graze are a lot of fun to combine, and they feel like a very natural part of the gameplay.”
“Despite the store page claiming the game as being 'old school', I really don't think the gameplay can be considered as such; because the abilities are not there as an option, but more like necessities.”
“The store page calls it old school hard, but 'bullet time' and endless screen nukes don't scream old school gameplay.”
“People who love modern post-Touhou bullet hells with a gameplay loop of limping through bullet grazes to fill up your 30-second OP god mode meter will like this.”
