Hey thanks so much for playing! Level 5 boss is pretty dang far and at that point you're hoping you have an EX attack 😆 I'm really glad you enjoyed this game. Try CrossgunrD+ as well if you want something with a traditional ending! Plays a bit differently 👍🏽😁

game is so fun and fast, very furious! Use your resources and just go go go! Extremely high energy caravan. Awesome stuff.!! Try it! There's unlimited lives so you are never out of the game. Try to get 10 million or more!

Hahaha! Yess! Awesome job!! And thank you of course for the kind words, yeah maybe a bit (more) harder than expected hehe. Looks like you went back and used original to remember the level layout and then used that knowledge to come back and crush D+! Nice strat!!!

AWESOME game - tough one too! Easily one of the best pico-8 games ever... in my top 10!

aw dang, thanks so much! that means a lot comin from an up and coming dev star like yourself

haha it does indeed - thanks for playing Cat! :)

sank you! <3

righteous score my dude! Ggs!!!

that's absolutely insane!!! Scoring is never over!! Ggs my dude!! You're knocking on 400k... Absolute skill 

YOU GUYS GOTTA SEE THIS!!!! THIS IS INSANE!!!

haha stick with it~! You can do it! the hitbox is really tiny, and remember to try to play aggressively, if you sit back at the bottom you will surely get overwhelmed, the repair and being hit clears all the bullets so use that to reposition your guns to do damage! its all about damage!

thanks!! How far are ya getting? I know this one is really tough compared to the last one! 🤔😅

This is awesome as heck! Great job!

However menu restart still borked. Will fix soon...

This one's inspired by the new modes you have been putting your Shmup as well as SchildM8 ! It's a tough cookie! Looking forward to a stream hopefully!

Hello! And happy to play your game, thanks for the compliments as well, very kind - 🙂

Re: your game - we can talk on the Shmup Junkie discord as necessary! Thanks! Good luck with your game!

Hello again friend! :) Enjoy! We did a kumite on twitch as well. I'll post that on the YouTube's soon... Be well!

thanks!! :)

Excellent art and presentation, cool game! I think it definitely could use expansion!

Its such a cool game, I wonder if you can take it to another platform and do more with it. I honestly could see this being much bigger if you wanted it to be!! what you did with the current token limit was astounding to me ... but im no wizard! haha well done either way

Thanks for this awesome response! I love your lesson learned. This happened to me during development as well. Just because something is logical and skill based doesn't make it fun! In my game back during development, when you got hit and your ship was on fire, you could no longer shoot until you picked up a repair... I wanted to force some dodging and you could smuggle or save a bomb to make this process easier but it just wasn't fun... So I got rid of powerloss completely! And instead I focused on making the game more fun without that power loss or forced dodging.

And in your case, I agree with the change, I enjoy the game a lot more, and if you wanted to introduce more difficulty you could have more bullets to dodge! That would be great fun. There's always ways to increase engagement without decreasing played abilities that ultimately are a bit tedious (unfortunately), though some players may be into that specific skill.

Hi ! did you REMOVE the shot limit in the game!? I really praised your SHOWING the shot limit of the game in my video! I do actually like it a bit more without the shot limit ... but that part of your design was genius :) Awesome game! take care - my take on it is in this video:

Hey JPOP, thanks for giving my game a few spins! Yes I wrote the music myself, and I agree, the game took on a different persona once the music was in place. That was a very fun process!

I talk a little bit about it in my dev diary video, it is timestamped in description if you're interested in me rambling about it: (1:08:40)


Go get em! I know you can do it! The video I linked on the itch page, has some high scoring runs if you need some strats! Thanks for the kind words on the game ❤️

should have posted the screenshot here :P

<3 thanks scowsh! appreciate it

Amazing job with this one! I played it on my stream at twitch.tv/aktane! Keep making shmups!

STREAMING PART 1 NOW! twitch.tv/aktane

Thank you for the kind words, GameOverGuy! I'm glad that you overcame that initial learning curve, I probably still have a lot to learn on how to guide players into my gameplay loop, :)  - looking ahead, I think I will do some more small projects, since this was my first I learned a lot on this one!

Perfect, thanks for the feedback!! I agree with that change haha

Super proud of you for putting this out! I know the journey wasn't without it's bumps! Loving this games humor and story, plus smokin hot original tunes, things you won't find in too many entries ;)

Hey Eduardo,


Thanks for playing! And thanks for the feedback! I thought I had a gif on the itch page explaining the use of EX, did you find that not helpful enough? Let me know if you mean a description inside the game or a better one outside.

Weird and cool idea, why not! the music is kind of the star here :)

Welcome and thanks for playing! It might be a little tough but I hope that if people stick with it, they find their progress swift 😄 I think I should probably put the OST out on Bandcamp... Because it feels like people are jammin!

Ggs! So happy you stuck with it and got the clear :) thanks for playing ❤️

ADDED!

Awesome!!! I'm glad you got some enjoyment, you're probably further along in the game than you think, I appreciate you trying it out even though it isnt in your genre of comfort!

thanks !! Now that it is done I can finally play SchildM8 😈😈

Added leaderboards above! NICE CLEAR, WELL DONE :P

Time and Date TBD but I want to wait until everyone is finished with their submissions! I will update here with Time and Date. I stream on twitch.tv/aktane

Happy shooting!
