Probably not the most accurate assessment of the player's abilities, and I'm especially not fond of the manual-tapping minigames.
But I can appreciate this game for being a shitpost in game form. Pull off "Nice Bombs!"

The game is crap, and I think it kind of knows it.
It runs like crap, it looks like crap (a port of a port), some of the minigames play like crap, some challenges feel like crap. But it also has a decent amount of content, and the sprinkled doses of humour here and there -shooting the cows, the whole recycling bin concept- has you forgive it a bit.
Had to leave the game overnight looking for a secret game that supposedly had a 1/200 chance of appearing per run, and that's why my playtime is a bit inflated.

I thought this game would be terrible. Turns out, it's a shitpost in shmup form which is also a minigame collection in the vein of point blank. Very sparse on stuff and has some blatant problems but the stupid sense of humour alone goes a long way.
