this game was marketed as a shoot em up, and i think that's a massive let down for a lot of people on that front. honestly, it plays much closer to a topdown action game in its gameplay, and i think this game is victim to genre labels not really meaning anything anymore

is this the shmup you want? no, probably not, but from the view of something that you can just go ham in, it is very enjoyable. definitely better approached as an action game.

2 massive let downs though : the OST, and the complete tonal dissonance between the opening cutscene and the actual game's story

kanako deserves every bad thing that could happen to her

god what would i give to let her punch me

(good dlc)

every time a UFO shows up on screen i scream its color like im cheering for my favorite football team (i hate football)

marisa and alice is my favorite toxic ship

three oomfies end up in a crazy series of shenanigans

This ♥♥♥♥♥♥ me up

works well on steam deck and on sale it is a literal steal for the whole package

best dollar in a sale i ever spent

i bought into the hype for this game, initially. do i regret it? no, not particularly. the game has a good opening, and goes downhill from there.

off the bat : the game looks very pretty. ridiculously so. it also handles fine. unfortunately though, the game mistakes tediousness for difficulty. i was given no reason to replay this game. some parts of it (especially the last area) are just a chore. there's also very little exploration - the game hands you an item to tell you where hidden collectibles are. okay? sure.

the movement is overall very good, and moving about usually feels decent, but that alone cannot carry the fact that the game is mostly unremarkable. i suppose it is worth playing, but it gets a good ole shoulder shrug for me.
