[u] Summary: [/u] I really try to be positive even when I'm not recommending a game per say, but Shmup Love Boom shattered that at the very get go. The statement of it being a modern bullet hell style shooter is ridculous, as the slow and lack of impact gameplay will immediately turn anyone who's played a SHMUP before off. With badly written dialogue, lacking visuals, absolutely NO sound effects, and a really really silly choice of using the mouse as the only means of controlling your ship, Shmup Love Boom fails on pretty much every level. And yes, clothes do get destroyed on the protagonist, but honestly, if you're that hard up for those kind of visuals, I'd like to introduce you to the thing called the internet. I'm still attempting to figure out how the pricing of 10 dollars and full price made sense. Avoid. Run.

About This Game
Includes multiple visual novel style cut scenes and dialogue featuring some beautiful anime women and some classic hard faced men in suits and an evil alien threat that wants to destroy Earth once and for all. Following in the footsteps of games like Xenon; Shmup Love Boom is a detailed bullet hell intense top down shooter experience.
SYNOPSIS: In the far flung future humanity lives on the brink of war with a group of neighboring aliens. When the Sol barrier is breached only one pilot is close enough to do anything about it. Once he is geared up with one of the beautiful symbiot warriors his ship is ready for action to fend off these alien marauders and take the fight to them for the first time in a decade.

So, this game is a space shooter with VN elements. It's also shit, let me say that right away. The gameplay is total arse, your ship moves like a paraplegic with a broken wheelchair and your weapons are about as powerful as a wet cough. The choosable waifu sub weapons don't really help much either The selling point of the game, the story, is badly written, with spelling mistakes and poor grammar in it. There are no sound effects, just the background music which isn't bad, but when it's all you hear, it really does get annoying. The other thing that this game does is the lives system. When you die, your chosen waifu loses a bit of clothing, nothing too risque, they just end up in their underwear by the last life. Sadly, even this was ultimately disappointing and could not redeem the game. Overall, I would give this a 2/10, playable but not for long.
What do you get when you mix a JRPG with a Shmup? A POS with sludgey controls and to much bad dialogue.
