Pros & Cons
Pros
You won't be disapointed with this game. Great arcade shumps.
The graphics are fantastic, the action is furious and fast paced. The difficulty is perfect, the music is awesome, etc.
It's an old concept that is beautiful, and it can be hard if you expect instant gratification. Don't hesitate to pick this one up. To a delightful thing, a hit judging is very small. It is surprised by the 2nd at the hardness of difficulty.

While this seems like a good idea in practice as far as actual gameplay goes in my opinion this makes things too complex leading to your preferring just one style and then being crippled in the more difficult stages when the weakness of that style is exploited in contrast to ikaruga where it was all just a matter of timing and reflexes here you can die repeatedly simply because you cant shoot behind you or destroy the overwhelming amount of enemies on the screen before they crash into you

On the subject of gameplay this shooter is nothing if not diverse

Dont get me wrong the level design is good and the gameplay is good i was just expecting something closer to amazing from the guys who brought us ikaruga

To be honest while the graphics are beautiful they rarely wow in the same way that the graphics in ikaruga did
