Blazend

Very (very) hard memorization shooter. Retro filter is nice, changing play-field size which is interesting. Expect to die a lot (a lot).

Classic 90's arcade nostalgia. You can tell the developer is a huge fan of older shmups such as Raiden, Truxton, and Rayxanber! In fact there's a lot of small references to these games and the final level of this game heavily reminded me of the last level from Rayxanber 2. Pure nostalgia!

As of right now this is one of my favorite games. I can't put it down because it's so fun and challenging. It definitely reminds me of the times I would sit down and play Galaga for hours. The graphics are amazing and it really feels like the developer put a lot of time and effort into level design. This is a game I'll always be playing because it's such a challenge! This is a must add to your library!

A solid, well-made shooter that really nails the early 90s Toaplan feel. I used to be into collecting arcade PCBs. So yeah, I guess these kinds of games are "my thing", more so than modern shooters with flashy graphics. Just as well; my ageing rig lacks the horsepower to run that stuff. For me, Blazend could almost be a newly discovered, unreleased gem from that era. It is a hard game. Lose concentration for a second and you're toast. But that's part of its appeal. I've yet to get very far in. Yes, there are continues, but the masochist in me forbids their use ;) Anyway, what's the fun in credit-feeding your way through? The music deserves a special mention. A perfect accompaniment to the action.

I have to sit on a pillow when i play this game...because it kicks my ass. I made it to the end of level 2 after 2 hours. Its a great shmup, memorization and micro-dodging are the key to winning. A hidden gem to drive you to madness...has an entry for cheat codes, i've yet to find any.

難しさを楽しみたい人向けですね。ファイアレートも低い地味なゲームでイージーでも、ハードクラスの難しさ。カジュアルさと爽快さを求める人は、お勧めできません。
