Get this right now, period. For $5, it's one of the best STGs that came out this year, and in full HD with 60fps to top it all. Crisp and clear, clean and very colourful, the game is simply very well presented.

It has a mixture of Treasure and CAVE feels where bullet hell is interwined with Ikarugesque ship-based action.

It's in the scoring system where I feel the game's biggest failing relies: it's unforgiving as hell. Being focused on the grazing mechanic (that is, getting close to enemy bullets as much as you can without getting hit), to build up a decent score you need to graze as many bullets as you. However, like with DoDonPachi chaining system, one mistake will screw you over big time. Getting hit, even while using your special weapons, will reset your graze counter (and with it all the score bonuses) back to zero. AND... your counter carries over stages so the best scores would probably be comprised of 1-life clears without being damaged, not even once. A bit on the insane side when you factor in the TLB only shows up on Hard and Insane difficulties, which you have to clear in one credit as well. So, if you play "for fun" you won't notice this at all since the whole presentation is awesome as hell, including the superb music. But if you play for score, you are in for a rough ride where mistakes are BRUTALLY punished with extreme prejudice. Good luck getting back that 500+ graze count in a short time.

To conclude, it's an AWESOME shooter, make no mistakes, but its scoring system can get a bit frustrating for seasoned players who will probably enter the "restart mania" mode.

So go, buy this and vote for it on Greenlight!
