I'll take obscure PS1 games for $300, Alex.
I honestly have to thank Kingdom Hearts 3 for referencing Schwarzgeist in an optional Gummi Ship boss otherwise I would've never found this. It’s unfortunate that this is plagued by the infamous continue system because as long as I'm still young and ignorant, I've definitely found a game I want to replay and improve on in my spare time.
An addictive ballet with bullets with gameplay that is simple at it's core but has an emphasis on experimenting with different gunpods and finding a layout that best suits the stage at hand. Knowing that all it takes is one hit to bring you down informs your reflexes and every waking second is a litmus test of whether you’ll survive in the midst of all the chaos or succumb to it.
The striking 90s sci-fi aesthetic and enemy spacecraft designs and Kenichiro Fukui's electronic music only compliment it mentioned even more.
My only issue is that from stage 4 and onward, there's a bump in difficulty and that can be a bit overwhelming for a novice like me but all the more reason for me to revisit and get better.
An actual hidden gem if I've ever seen one.
