Gun Wings

Very Fun Game! 10/10!

A surprisingly beautiful game when you actually play it. The game's title bar actually does the game a disservice with it's garish over-saturated tri-colour characters. The moment you boot up the game you are met with a beautiful rust-punk aesthetic with a very well coordinated colour palate. Game is fun too. It uses the same hold & release system that Vukaiser uses, but with 2 levels to charge up, instead of just one. There's also a separate attack that charges very slowly by killing enemies that you lose when you lose a life which helps add tension. I still think it would be better if you didn't have to hold the button down to attack, but that can probably be fixed with something like anitmicrox.

Great , just great

Gun Wings is the perfect blend of bullet hell chaos and anime aesthetic, with a story that throws you right into the action. The year is 2117, and humanity's fate rests in the hands of three cybernetically modified girls, sent to destroy a meteorite carrying unknown life forms and deadly viruses. The game’s intense difficulty is balanced with fast-paced action and gorgeous visuals, making every run feel exciting. The female protagonists bring that anime flair, while the soundtrack enhances the immersion.

Kawaii Factor Breakdown:
★ Character Design: 9/10 – The cybernetic girls are stylish, but there’s room for even more customization.
★ Bullet Hell Intensity: 10/10 – It’s chaotic, it’s fast, and you’ll be dodging for your life every second.
★ Soundtrack: 8/10 – Really brings out the atmosphere of the futuristic world and high-stakes action.
★ Difficulty: 10/10 – Prepare to be challenged. This is not a game for casuals.

Pro Tips:
- Focus on learning attack patterns early on, the difficulty spikes fast.
- Take advantage of the girls’ unique abilities to maneuver through the toughest sections.
- Master the bullet-jumping mechanic for precision dodging in tight spots.

Final Verdict:
Gun Wings is a must-play for fans of bullet hell shooters and anime lovers alike. The combination of fast-paced, high-stakes gameplay, anime characters, and an epic, apocalyptic storyline keeps the tension high. With plenty of challenge and beautifully designed levels, it’s a rewarding experience for anyone looking to test their reflexes and skills.

It's a pretty great shmup overall except for the one flaw, it's 30fps, not the worst 30fps mind you but still noticeably worse than 60.
And it's a shame because besides that it's absolutely a great time and you can feel someone cared, although it is balanced towards people who are actually great at shmups (you can 100% credit feed your way through and the only thing you'll miss are cheevos and a few end of stage CGs for people who do well )
