Teslapunk

Don't be fooled by the effusive positive reviews. Let's be real, this game is about as "complicated" as a Flash game circa 2000. Graphics are absolutely hideous and the scrolling backgrounds are offensive. The entire game is basically grey and there's no creativity in the enemy sprites or their behavior... they just slowly float off the top of the screen... sit there... emit some bullets... and be blown up. Mechanics are incredibly weak and there's no satisfaction found (for me anyways) with the bullet canceling. I've played a couple hundred shoot-em-up games in my life... can confidently say there is absolutely no reason to spend money here.

A simple three button shmup (Standard Fire, Focus Fire, Hyper) that does a great job of presenting some of the STG basics in an easily palatable format (even if the story takes itself with exactly zero seriousness). The scoring in this game is equally basic (hyper bullet cancels multiply your score for each bullet cleared, a multiplier that diminishes with time). As your multiplier increases, the game gets harder. Bosses are interesting a varied, utilizing some classic STG tropes. All in all, this shmup will probably not be among any true shmuppers top picks (certainly not mine), but it is solid, and enjoyable for it's zaniness; a great way for beginners to get their feet wet. Would recommend.

THIS? this is the one. whoever made this is a gorgeous, brilliant man. I love you. MAKE MORE PLEASE

It's good for what it is. Teslapunk doesn't exactly do anything new, but that's fine by me. It is a fun shmup in general and I can't complain. I especially like the music as well as the art-style here. This game has a unique survival mode that's also quite fun. Worth it at full price or on sale.

Nice game, pretty cool visual, the stages and bosses actually sync very well with the music, especially the boss in level 5, the music is the strong aspect of this game. The game actually have other mode to keep you hooked into the game, and practice mode to improve your skill. However, there is no pause or quit button to retry when you mess up your 1 cc run in some sections, which is a big deal.

Very nice shmup with unique visuals & music
