A bit silly to rate it because (at the time of this writing) Kalikan exists only as a single level of an unfinished larger game... but it's a cool single level of an unfinished larger game! A PICO-8 shoot-em-up with Dodonpachi-esque chaining that really nails the leniency (whereas Dodonpachi feels incredibly strict, this feels looser and more open to experimentation).

I participated in a little Discord community score competition and had a lot of fun routing this, and could for sure see myself enjoying the full game quite a lot. Check it out: https://louiechapm.itch.io/kalikan
