Absolutely phenomenal and hysterical shmup. Extremely kind but never pulling punches, Nekotosakana is one of the most delightful shooting game I've ever played. Everything about the game is deeply sincere without tipping into the self-serious. The keyboard control take on the twin stick has changed my perspective on the possibility space for twin sticks. This game escalates nicely without being overwhelming to a new shmup player or being dull to an experienced player. A behemoth of a game.
