very tough shmup i wouldn't be able to beat if i didnt have unlimited credits so graciously provided by this hd port. the music and presentation is some of the best. the sound is straight out of a chu ishikawa industrial album and one of the greatest soundtracks in a video game. there is so much happening on screen that it can be very hard to navigate and you will end up dying a lot of the times but when you find that one line through all that polygonal fireworks and industrial sonic scape, the feeling you get is it keeps you coming back.

this one will definitely need a revisit once i get better at shmups
