It seems a bit silly to complain about readability when talking about a bullet hell shmup, a subgenre known for overstimulating maximalism, but it's one of the things that keeps Crimzon Clover from reaching the highs of top tier shmups like Ketsui and Mushi. With Cave's best stuff, while the patterns may be intimidating, they've always felt fair to me - on the other hand Crimzon Clover adds collecting stars that cover the screen and multiplier numbers popping up, muddying up the screen and making things seem unfair at times. Sure it's probably partially a skill issue, but the overload makes it hard to convince me to 1cc, even on Novice.
