Shutshimi

Having a blast with this one, an obvious choice for those who are into 2D style shoot em ups and retro tunes. The art is colorful and vibrant with all sorts of neat little modes and accessories for your fish. Bosses and powerups makes me want to keep coming back for more. I would totally recommend this to hardcore gamers and casual ones alike!

Is a great combination of Raiden + Binding of Isaac + Half Minute Hero. Was lucky enough to try it before went out on the stores and I absolutely loved it. It has a nostalgic feel of a classic side scrolling shooter with a bunch of modern twists. It short burst levels for 10 seconds followed by a 10 second item selection. After each level you get to modify your weapon or yourself with a random upgrade (cannonballs, lazers, triple shot, etc). You can tell whomever was writing the text for items was having fun because there are little jokes everywhere. The levels also can have effects on them that change how you play such as a rave party setting or inverted. The sounds and music were that of modern day 8-bit. Graphics are done in the retro style also. Was cute and they especially put a lot of effort into the backgrounds. Good replayability with the randomization. I'm not much for competition so I enjoyed the co-op aspect of the game where my buddies that were more competitive liked bein...

When there are so many shoot 'em up's on the market, it can be really hard to find one that leaves an impression so vividly in your memory. What better a game to do so than one about a fish with realistic biceps and a 10 second long memory span? Let's face it, you already know what this game is about. You shoot stuff. However, this game is unlike many other shmups because you shoot stuff in high volume for very short amounts of time. 10 seconds to be exact. And then you get to pick one of three upgrades - within 10 seconds. And then that upgrade lasts (depending on the upgrade) for the next 10 seconds of shooting before it's gone. This mechanic not only ties you to your avatar - a fish with arms - using gameplay in a very clever and intuitive way, but it also gives for a fast paced, replayable, arcade-like game. Aside from the main mechanics, the controls are responsive and simple, the upgrades are hilarious (sometimes infuriatingly so), the visuals are pleasing, and the music is the...

Great music and visuals with a ton of replay value. Inspired by some of the most manic and creative games of all-time and puts that inspiration to good use and also builds on it in an original way. Worth every penny.

Been following this game for a bit and was THRILLED to see the Steam Version come out. It was an easy choice to get it and there has been no regrets! This 2D Side Scrolling shooter is full of wacky items that affect not only the game play but also the sounds and the sights of this game. I can easily see myself putting way too many hours into it. And would definately recommend it for ANYBODY

Shutshimi is a game for real men who have what it takes to protect their homes from the terrors of the ocean! It’s a randomized shoot ‘em up game that heavily relies on RNG which can also lead to frustration when it comes to hunting achievements, but since each wave takes about 10 seconds long, it’s not that bad, I guess. At the end of each wave, you get to a shop and are presented with 3 different items with bizarre descriptions that give not-so-useful information about the item you’re about to get for the next wave. Different guns, extra fish, and the fishbowl last until they’re gone, but the rest of the items last for a single wave only. You technically have 3 unique bosses and 3 more with their variants and after that, the game ends and you are rewarded with Victory Laps that go on and on. Apart from the normal game mode, you have a baby mode that has only 2 bosses and no real rewards, Boss Rush, and a game mode that is much more difficult and gives you one chance thr...

This game is fantastic. A little pricey compared to the xbox version, but they've added a lot. Collect hats and murder some sharks. Best played with friends.

You play a goldfish with beefy arms and a gun you shoot at random junk for 10 seconds then you panic as you choose one of three buffs/debuffs then you shoot random junk again for 10 seconds then it's suddenly 2 or 3 hours later and you're cool with that for some reason

This game is FANTASTIC. Quick rounds, fast action, crazy power-ups, wild enemies, cool bosses, killer tunes, tight controls. You name it, it's got it. Even HATS. The game is fun both in single player and comfy couch co-op, you can just pick it up and play. Anyone from hardcore SHMUP fans to casual gamers with find something to love in Shutshimi. Shutshimi is a must-have. I absolutely recommend you pick this up and have yourself a beefy-armed goldfish party right now.

Quick and easy to pick up and play. Varied gameplay with awesome music and art. Well worth the asking price.
