A mystical world on the edge of destruction. Unlikely saviors joined by fate and duty. A mission driven by music, magic...and survival.
Murasaki is a hybrid shmup and puzzle game that creates intense and high-speed gameplay against a serene landscape with gorgeous music. With the ability to only fire a single bullet at a time, you must use cunning, angles and timing to survive.
Random shapes will appear as the levels progress: these designs will trigger massive explosions when shot. If you can bounce corresponding shapes off of each other, they'll create a chain reaction that, with a little luck, will wipe the screen. Don't wait too long, because the enemies will overwhelm you in a second!
If you can't get a clear shot, each character has a special attack with limited uses. Use them wisely to get out of a tight situation or to put the finishing blow on one of several bosses!
Characters
Kairi
The older of the heroes, Kairi acts as a big brother, though he's not related to Satsuki. His movements are slow, but his long range shot can reach anywhere on the screen, perfect for ricochet combinations. This however, also means that you don't have rapid shots.
Kairi's special attack is a spiraling explosion that reaches most of the screen. This bomb can absorb enemy's bullets and destroy multiple targets. Use it wisely.
Satsuki
The younger hero, Satsuki is impetuous and headstrong, and it shows in her attack formation. Satsuki can move across the screen quickly, but the range of her shots is very short. Sometimes they won't reach the enemy.
However, using her speedy shots, you can bounce the explosive blocks farther than Kairi, which makes it easier to create a chain attack with other blocks. Just be careful not to bounce them too far, or the explosion won't reach the enemy!
Her special attack is a cross-formation energy wave. It hits harder than Kairi's, but could easily miss if the timing is off. Use it wisely.
Find your center and get into a flowing rhythm of evading and exploding. If you can master the mechanics, Murasaki is insanely satisfying, mixing the mayhem and the tranquil music in a beautiful dissonant clash. Failure means death, swift and painful. Don't look at where the bullets in front of you go: plan for where the explosions will happen afterwards.
There is a long and tragic story within Murasaki: each successful (and even unsuccessful) chapter unlocks new information, history, bios and even musical tracks. To truly understand the full game, you must become an expert with both Kairi AND Satsuki. It's daunting, it's hard, but the satisfaction of a full unlock is unmatched.
Config
You can start a config tool from "Launch Configuration Tool" when you start the game.
Here, you can configure the screen size, BGM/SE ratio, key bindings, etc.
The death of an empire. The rise of darkness. And two heroes alone combat a broken soul.

Somehow I feel like I like this game even more than Murasaki Tsurugi, and I like Tsurugi
* Note: The singular Steam guide for this game contains a variety of helpful hints and easter eggs, give it a read
Murasaki may look intimidating and weird on the first glance, but it's extremely worth giving it a try.
It's insane how solid the game is as a bullet hell while having a highly experimental premise. Basic mechanics are very easy to get used to, but have a lot of depth at the same time. Presentation could not be to everyone's taste, but it grew on me pretty quickly, soundtrack is simply astonishing.
Honestly it's pretty hard for me to properly put into words how amazing this game is, please give it a chance and you may discover one of the most interesting games ever.
A lot of fun!
Inventive mechanics & delightful soundtrack. Balanced so that it only takes modest skill to reach a proper ending, but with plenty of challenges to pursue. My main complaint is the somewhat abrasive sound effects, but I got used to them.
Extremely fun puzzle shmup. Despite only being 6 stages long, there is a lot of replayability with the various achievements and score incentives you can shoot for. The soundtrack is also really good.
