About This Game

The muscle-bound crawfish scientist Tony has ostentatiously stolen the museum's Power Pearl under your watch! There's only one thing that can mean - you are so fired tomorrow... ...unless...
Commandeer one of the ancient ships from the display and give chase, blasting through sky and sea! Can you overcome the forces that stand between you and your paycheck? What will you find when you confront Tony in his hidden laboratory?

Health energy is used for firing and movement, and can also be traded at any time for gaining upgrades or activating subweapons! Keep mowing down enemies to keep your energy meter filled, but watch out- getting hit will downgrade the primary weapon!

Choose one of three unique ships, each with their own properties and weapons!



Weave through obstacles and tackle waves of enemies as you:


Each stage culminates in a boss encounter where you'll face off against:


Bring along a friend and double your firepower! Two local players can share in the action simultaneously on the same screen!

This game is really fun, you should get it. But if you wanted to actually know something about it first, here's some stuff you might like to know: - Running into walls doesn't kill you! - You can turn around to shoot behind you whenever you want! - I may not have a full understanding of it yet (so don't mind if I have some details wrong), but the power up system is neat! Everything you destroy emits energy towards your health, which in turn can be sacrificed towards powering up your main weapon or using a special or bomb attack. If you get hit, you power down, but you immediately have a choice of whether or not to try to regain more health or to retaliate by powering up at the cost of additional health. Basically, the game gives you options that are friendly towards new players, but also has a lot of room for advanced players to effectively bomb their way through whatever obstacles they want, and newer players may enjoy the "puzzle" element of figuring out when they really need to hav...
Really amazing indie shmup with many unexpected twists and turns! I'd absolutely recommend this game to those who might not even be into shmups. Can definitely guarantee that you'll still have lots of fun despite the constant dying. Both the soundtrack and art are amazing! ♡♡
Fantastic indie title. Challenging, but fun and rewarding! Been enjoying myself!
Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance
RAD! Has that juicy game-feel of Treasure Games - and a lot of the humor too. Interesting game design mechanics that are intuitive and fun to play with. Cool bosses!
The game just oozes charm and love out of every pixel. Highly recommend for anyone that 's a fan of shoot 'em ups!
>Make a shmup with two-player support >Every enemy prioritizes Player 1, so Player 2 gets hit for free by mechanics built around giving Player 1 room to dodge Like there's these fish on stage 2 that zoom up to player 1 and encircle them before dashing through, and P2 justs gets whammed on their way in with no predictability whatsoever, it's the dumbest shit I've ever seen Also stages are way too long for how much of the same shit you sit through in them
This game has great music, and graphics, but the gameplay is hindered by the upgrade system. In stage 3 i got in a deathloop where if you die after the checkpoint, you might as well quit because you cannot upgrade yourself to deal enough damage so you will keep dying repeatedly.
This isn't the shooter of the year but it's still a great looking and sounding game (from one of the creator of Sonic Mania). There are 3 ships for 4 levels (which can at least enhance the replay value). The downside is that there are some crashes, hopefully it will be fixed in an update.
