Starving for well developed shmups, I took a chance on this one and do not regret it.
Controls: MFi or virtual joystick (static, floating or follow - can take a couple levels to really get the hang of, but once you do, it feels great!)
Difficulty levels: easy, medium, hard
Modes: campaign/story or multiplayer (but MP never has other players due to, I’m guessing, low sales)
Upgrades: spend orbs to upgrade HP, attack strength, attack reach, special attack, acceleration and speed
Medals: each stage has a gold, silver, bronze medal based on score
Stages: 7, each with different and meaningful objectives with quite a few enemy types and ways that you’ll have to attack in order to defeat them
IAP: THANKFULLY NO!!!!
There’s settings for FPS (30 or 60) and graphics (low + high), as well as separate music and fx; on/off options. Languages included are Japanese and English.
I haven’t beaten the game yet (only on stage 5), but am enjoying it VERY much. And with the AppStore STARVING for shmup titles, I’m really surprised this doesn’t have any reviews after being out for so long.
Really hope it doesn’t get pulled and the dev is working on more games, because there’s clearly loads of talent here and the game, honestly, should cost more than it does considering what all is included and how well it’s executed.
Great job!!! 👍👍
