This is a spectacular game, which I ignored for years (the price tag seemed a bit spicy). Now that I rediscovered it, I can say it is (still) hard as nails, but in a good way, amazing presentation, crisp gameplay, killer soundtrack, and a lot of options in the menus. Does not want to reinvent the wheel, which is a big plus for me. What it does, it does right.
Presentation is brilliant. Banging music as well. What really lets the game down is the difficulty and how it's designed around memorisation. I like overcoming challenge in games from either skill or a better understanding of the game mechanics and systems. With this you've basically got stuff you have no chance in avoiding unless you've memorised from your last run that it's going to happen. I find that poor and not game design I enjoy. It might take you a while to appreciate what I'm explaining, but you'll soon realise that the lack of choreographed attacks and the timing you'll get to avoid them is nothing. They're basically just instant attacks. You could argue that shmups require routing to some degree, but this is to an extreme just to survive.
This doesn't really require any skill, just memorisation. Weapon design doesn't fit with what's required, way too underpowered and underwhelming. It's more like a dodg'em up than shoot'em up. Doesn't seem to be a lot of design for strategy, timing and feel of execution, just put stuff on the screen and shoot at it.
With a great soundtrack, great gameplay, and great graphics, this game is an all-around gem.
