Battle Crust

Great shump, I hope you will make others

So I finally got to play this game. A very excellent shoot em' up that's very challenging. Fans of this genre like me will love it. A lot of fun. :D

This game is a love letter to late 80's / early 90's vertically scrolling shmups from Japan. To borrow a wine-tasting analogy, I see definite notes of Irem's excellent 'Image Fight' in particular, but without some of the irritating quirks had by the original game. The end result is a bit like a 2020 Ford Mustang - looks retro but packed with pleasantly surprising additions, and easier to drive well (or so I'm told). A big thumbs up!

A good game that could be great! If you are a shooter fan and you most likely are if you are on this page you will enjoy this game. The thing is you will also no doubt like me find some little annoying ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥. The game looks great and a lot of thought has obviously gone into the design detail to capture that early 90's arcade feel. The music and end level intermission are also done very well. The ship controls just slightly too slow, it cause me to get killed far too often when you attempt to make a dodeg but the ship just doesnt quite get there. I can find no speed option or speed power ups in game. The ships weapons often feel too weak even after being powered up. This makes it feel at times unbalanced. I found myself dyeing much more during the levels than the boss fights. The ships weapon sounds are often weak and too 'bleepy' . It doent make you feel like a bad ass which for me shooting games should. These comments aside i do still really enjoy the game and recommend you do to. This companies next game 'Infinos Gaiden' has a demo out now on Steam and it is magnificent. Its very clear to see they learnt a lot making this game and took that on to something amazing. Picoring soft has become one of my now closely watched studios.

Hyakutaro Tsukumo/10 Games competent enough but not very inspired, bit of a celebration on being generic. Buy to let this composer know he is loved !

気合いの入った魅力的なドット絵と演出 ノリの良い音楽 熱中できるすぐれたゲームバランス の三つがそろっており、おすすめできるシューティングだと思います。 初見殺しの要素がわりとあり、その点では賛否が分かれますが、プレイするほどそういうのを覚えていき、「自分がどんどん上手くなっていく」という気持ち良さが味わえます。 シューティングが好きな人なら購入をおすすめしたいかなりの良作だと思います。

I just finnished Infinos Gaiden by the same developer, and now I am working through this one. I am already a massive fan of Picorinne Soft!

The yellow weapon sucks.

As a certified Shmup Fanatic I gotta say this game really satisfies. Good music, pretty sharp pixels and vibrant colors, tight game mechanics, and challenging but fair . Get It Now!

소개한 것 그대로 8090년대 갬수성에 아주 충실한 수작 인디슛뎀업겜입니다. 난이도도 적당하고 플레이타임도 20분 내외라서 좀 망설였는데 생각해보니 8090년대 수작명작 슈겜중에서도 20분 안돼는 겜들이 생각보다 있으니 적당한 셈치고 패쓰하고 무엇보다도 8090년대에 자주 쓰였던 FM음원으로(아마도 YM2151?) 만들어진 게임OST가 너무 좋습니다! 고전겜 좋아하시는 분들이라면 강추!
