Each run is 4 stages with 4 bosses
You got shops that sell different main and sub weapons as well as supplies and passive upgrades. There's 2 factions that you can choose to ally with for passive upgrades and better prices at their stores however shops of the opposing faction will sell at higher prices or outright not deal with you anymore
Controls are identical to an nes game for better or worse, occasionally you'll get annoyed at wanting to crouch slash while you're on a ladder and instead climb down but other than that it's very tight and any hits taken are on you
All the extra CRT filters you can use had me insanely nostalgic, it's my first time seeing that in a game =)
You also have different characters, although I prefer the original
I think maybe a slightly lower price tag would make this title more accessible
Truly an achievement, excellent job dev!!
