Hopefully it's worth 0.00$ that I spent on it. Nobody will read my review so I Will Eat 1 Tablespoon of ketchup For Every Like this gets.

I am 32 years old. My ex-wife and I have a daughter together, and we adopted our son together. Both are now 4 years old. When we were going through our separation, I felt lost and unhappy. I was self-destructive. One day, I was so angry with everything spiraling out of control that I punched a concrete wall in a moment of overwhelming emotion. This resulted in breaking my fifth metacarpal in my right hand—the hand I worked with, played games with, and used to carry my children to bed—the hand I desperately needed to ensure I could continue providing. Upon learning the severity of the self-inflicted damage, I became almost suicidal. Keep in mind that just a few months before this, I was the happiest man, with no history of depression or anxiety. I had never experienced anger outbursts, nor was I the type to break down and cry, but I was in a tough situation that truly prevented me from seeing the light on the other side. With nothing better to do, I looked for a game I could play WITH ONE HAND while recovering. Somehow, I stumbled upon this game and read some of the comments. I decided it was worth a try... I must admit I didn't beat the game, nor did I play as much as some of y…

Does not properly support controllers. Can only remap to A and B buttons on an controller, but the game requires 3 buttons. So I have to map Bomb and Shield to the same button. Game is ridiculously hard, but maybe it would be easier with the use of the shield which I can not use properly due to the mapping issue. Sound FX and music are dull and boring. Looks pretty though.

Much, Much more competent than AWA from the same Developer. Good Graphics, tight Control, Elevator Music (if the Elevator is in a Night Club) BUTT The same Problems as the predecessor... Bullet Pattern that gives you no room... to manoeuvre... hence the shield Bullet Pattern stay on Screen after you Die... hence DEAD AGAIN... because the Shield will overload in an instant... Worst the Enemies Bullets will hide in the the Background.. (Same Design Choice In AWA, but here they will hide in the Bullet Stream of your own Ship) It's Dirt Cheap on a Sale so i will recommend it... for what it is, a able SHMUP, but not a good one... and not a bad one...

I cant really say there's a high point anywhere in my experience w this game. It has issues detecting controllers sometimes or just the buttons and the diagonal movement looks staggered initially but maybe I'm insane. The different shot patterns are cool, but oddly enough, the spread shot ship moves the same speed as the straight shot ship. The patterns are not very visually pleasing nor compelling to play against and the hitbox is an ugly flashing red dot and the soundtrack hurts meh. Buy on sale if you want to achievement hunt or think it's particularly visually cool or something
