What’d you think?: This was a vertical-scrolling shmup. The default difficulty level was Easy, so that’s what I played it on. Easy gives you five continues, and I only needed two to beat it. It was easy enough (and I’m not particularly good at shmups) that I imagine on a second attempt, I could do it with no continues. Hard mode gives you just one continue, but I couldn’t be certain about there being any other differences, like enemy health or bullet density. There were four character choices, who all handled a little differently, but in the end it was a (fine, I guess) paint-by-numbers shmup.
