The gameplay is a solid bullet hell shooter that features a unique bullet countering mechanic and unlockable art cards, which add a layer of strategy and replayability. While some players appreciate the fun mechanics and anime-themed elements, others feel the overall experience lacks depth compared to other titles in the genre. It's recommended primarily for fans of the specific themes presented, as the gameplay may not stand out to those seeking more traditional bullet hell experiences.
“Great bullet hell gameplay with a bullet countering mechanic, and the unlockable stat booster art cards will keep you coming back.”
“A slight thumbs up based on the gameplay and some unique elements like the bullet countering system and being able to unlock cards that, in the main 'shock mode', can be used to power up or even power down your character.”
“I love shmups and the mechanics based around this one are fun and feel fresh in my shmup experience.”
“Then you have to unlock it and it's a little disappointing that it's just in a gallery with no gameplay or even after boss battle screen.”
“Simple counter mechanic with a few variations.”
“Only a real recommend for those who are really into this particular theme, although the gameplay is decent enough that I'm sticking with it.”
