Neptunia Shooter

This game shouldn't cost money. This should be a minigame within a game that costs money. An extremely easy sh'mup that on my first playthrough beat all stages in 15 minutes taking less than 5 hits (I know because I got a chievo for it). Hit this again on my backlog of chievo hunting and managed to get all the rest of them in 2 more passes for a grand total of about 45 minutes played for 100% completion.

This Game is very basic, but very hard. I would not recommend playing it, as it has a bunch of problems. This Game could easily give the player a different button for every kind of attack you unlock, to not have to switch through multiple characters when wanting a different weapon, as it needs you to use everything. It also wants you to memorize everything to be able to clear it, because if you're only reacting, there will be times in which it becomes impossible to dodge attacks. You also move very slow, which isn't bad for bullet hell games in general, but you should also provide a faster movement option imo. Would be nice to reposition quickly in certain situations. I wouldn't mind the game being as hard as it is, if it would save and would let you try again in each level. But if you run out of lives, you gotta start from level 1. It gets boring super quickly. Keep a hardmode or something for people wanting to do that, but as it stands, I am unable to clear this game, as I am already sick of seeing the first 3 stages and do not want to further waste my time. I don't have fun hunting for "high scores" if I can't even beat the game.

Game is short but stupid hard, still good game.

Neptunia Shooter is a unique arcade spin-off that takes the colorful cast of the Hyperdimension Neptunia franchise and places them into a fast-paced side-scrolling shooter. Developed and published by Idea Factory International, the game abandons the turn-based role-playing mechanics associated with the main series in favor of a more immediate and action-focused experience. The result is a compact title that emphasizes reflexes, score chasing, and frantic battles while retaining the humor and charm that fans of the franchise have come to expect. The story is intentionally simple and serves mainly as an excuse to throw players into nonstop action. Familiar heroines from the Neptunia universe find themselves dealing with an unusual situation involving endless enemies and an overwhelming amount of pudding. The narrative embraces the series’ trademark comedy and absurdity, creating a playful backdrop for the gameplay. While storytelling is not the primary focus, the lighthearted tone helps the game maintain its personality and ensures that it never takes itself too seriously. Gameplay revolves around surviving waves of enemies while collecting valuable items and maintaining control of…

6.5/10 A fun and cheap game! There's barely a story, Music's okay..., and graphics are passable. It was made as an April fools joke so, it's kinda bare bones/slapped together. WARNING: This game is VERY difficult (I can't stress this enough; There are no continues and you only start with 3 lives) I've got a maximum enjoyment out of it for about..... 1 hour after that the difficulty really sours the game for me.

Neptunia Shooter is a nice little pixel arcade side-scrolling shooter. However it is far too difficult for casual players and it feels more like a bullet hell especially since you have far too little health. The configuration options are very limited as they only include keybinds and do not allow you to change any audio settings. There is no real fullscreen mode but at least you can resize the game window manually. While the controls are okay it would have been helpful to have a small indicator for the hitbox because the character model is much larger than the actual hitbox. It would have been better if the general movement was faster while having an additional slow button for precise dodging like in the Touhou games. The abilities of Vert and Blanc are unfortunately completely useless and their attacks are so bad that using them often leads to your death. It is really only worth playing with Neptune and If but because you have to cycle through the characters you constantly end up on the trash abilities by accident. The achievements in this game do not unlock while playing in Steam's offline mode which is very unusual as they normally unlock anyway in other games. Also another…
