I feel like this should have been a slam dunk for me. I like shmups, I like short games, and I have fond memories of the original.
But it’s just not clicking for me so far.
It might end up one of those games that I play for an hour after buying it, leave it for a year, then come back and play it to death. Who knows.
The controls feel … off… somehow. It looks pretty, it hits a lot of the notes for gameplay. The change in how the characters are portrayed is ass. Not worth the asking price… if it was a 19.99 msrp it would be more in line.
