About ASSAULT SHELL
Pilot the insanity fighter "Assault Shell" and shoot down the enemy down to pieces!
Select from 4 different variations, the powerhouse ALPHA, the high-ranged BETA, the stonewall GAMMA, and the melee master DELTA! Charge up your hyper meter to unleash a powerful hyper mode, but charge it up again to unleash the insanity system BLANK STAND, which not only makes you even stronger, but damages the enemy's sanity and turns them insane, making them harder to fight. Use the risk vs reward system effectively in order to score high and destroy efficiently!
Story
Amber Black, a military faction based in the Asian Continent, has their influence all across the southern hemisphere, and has begun taking over other private military companies and factions. However, their rival JOKER will not stand for this. After a gap in their jump gate defensive system due to the Enemy Black operation, JOKER begins their mission to take down Amber Black once and for all. Take to the skies, JOKER unit no.233487, and destroy Amber Black's ambition.
Blast through 5 stages and eradicate all of the large and epic bosses Amber Black has to throw at you! Will you survive the mission?

This game deserves so much more love than it got. I 1ccd it, then I got the 2-All, then I wrote a guide for it. It may not matter, but I love your game. Diet lemon Coke Clover, but more fun and broken. Achievements don't work, neither does type D's options, or the input rebinds.... I'll always be waiting for part two. EDIT: Part two came out and it blows ass, don't buy it. :(6 found this helpful
Do you like a good Hyper System? Or even better... a well-crafted and finely-tuned Double Break? Then Assault Shell is for you. Except it doesn't quite end there. And that's because Assault Shell has taken upon itself to grace us with the fabled... *drum rolls*... TRIPLE BREAK!!!~ Before I get to that though, let's first deal with the enormous elephant in the room: this game's visuals. Don't trust the screenshots, and don't trust the videos. Sure, it looks rough around the edges; I even joked with my hubby that the entire game was probably drawn in MS Paint. That said though, Assault Shell possesses an extremely distinct visual charm; and it only makes sense once you start to actually play the game for yourself. The graphics are extremely, and I mean, EXTREMELY crisp, pure, and direct. There is never ever any doubt with respect to what you're seeing on the screen. This is a quality which ultimately trumps everything else in an STG: visual clarity. And what Assault Shell does insanely well is that it takes this MS Paint charm and injects a healthy dose of Holy Water into it. What you're left with is what I like to call: functional beauty. Even if you're somehow not sold on …3 found this helpful
This is an average modern shmup. Nice variety of ships. You'll utilize all of your buttons for different things. Great if you own an arcade stick. It's a good 5 dollar game, way overpriced at 10 dollars. I wish there were more continues. Sometimes, I don't even know what killed my ship tbh. Plays like an early access game.3 found this helpful
Achievements don’t work, score doesn’t save sometimes, sequel looks to be in purgatory………….and it doesn’t matter. One of the most fun shmups I’ve ever played and one of my most cherished 1ccs. The flow state this game gets you into is second to none. Highly recommend.1 found this helpful
For me, Assault Shell (アサルトシェル) is one of the greatest shmups I`ve ever played in my life. Despite the art being kinda choppy, the mechanics makes this game really great. The soundtrack by A2B is banger, and the stages are filled barrages of bullets and adrenaline. I highly recommend this game to people who enjoy shmups a lot.1 found this helpful
Just gonna list my gripes. - The tutorial tells you how to play but the buttons on my controller make zero sense - The graphics are horrible - It's a small window that's far too busy, your ship is too big and I swear to god I don't even know what is hitting me - I can't even tell what is happening. Status stuff is in the way of everything, and it's unreadable. - My biggest gripe is the bullet patterns. You'll get swarmed on easy-mode right from the get-go because you happened to be on the wrong side of the screen and thus it's impossible to dodge anything. It's so completely unforgiving because it relies on you to memorize rather than have fun trying to actually play it. Also, don't make enemy bullets blend in with your own.
