I have to wonder if Sunny Tam has ever been approached by a major arcade game company, because his work is right up there with some of the best. Then again, I've been playing great homebrew SHUMPS since the late 90's, with games such as Noiz2a. ruka Active Member Apr 12, 2013 38 0 0 Programmer Internet #5 ruka, May 24, 2013 Awesome, it's on sale!

Well worth the price Bloko Well-Known Member Mar 24, 2012 418 0 0 #15 Bloko, May 24, 2013 Don't buy it now. This game is worth the full price, buy it after the sale is over. The dev totally deserves the support. nightc1 Well-Known Member Oct 19, 2012 4,362 0 0 AL #16 nightc1, May 24, 2013 Gameplay Q... I posted basically the same thing in the DU1 free sale thread... but incase it gets overlooked I'll ask here too. Please don't hate on me for asking this... Is the entire game basically dodging/grazing bullets? What I mean is, can you pretty much blast through and finish the whole game not even paying attention to enemies? I played a bit of the first one and that's the feeling I get from it (in fact that's exactly what I did to finish the first level... ignore everything except the core of my ship and avoid or graze as many bullets as possible). Is there more to it than that? smes3817 Well-Known Member Oct 15, 2009 1,120 8 38 Massachusetts, USA #17 smes3817, May 24, 2013 I would love to know this as well. Had the exact same thoughts as you while playing the first one. Didn't even look away from my ship once and was thinking I must be missing something. nightc1 Well-Known Member Oct 19, 2012 4,362 0 0 AL #18 nightc1, May 24, 2013 Well, its reassuring that I wasn't alone in that observation. Hopefully one of the folks that loves and recommends the game will come through and post something. It is sort of a fresh take on the genre (if that's the core of the game), but not something I think I'd enjoy versus other shmups where you focus on enemies and avoiding/grazing the incoming fire. tops2 Well-Known Member Jan 21, 2011 2,067 44 48 #19 tops2, May 24, 2013 That's more or less the premise of most bullet hell/shmup games I've played if all I'm focusing on is finishing the game. Once you can beat the game comfortably, the next step is learning the scoring system if you care about that. Danmaku Unlimited 1's scoring is pretty straight forward. The sequel has 2 modes with different scoring mechanics. nightc1 Well-Known Member Oct 19, 2012 4,362 0 0 AL #20 nightc1, May 24, 2013 Thanks, appreciate the detail. I guess I'll take a pass on this one. I've played many shmups through the years... many that filled the screen with bullets... but never one till now where I could just ignore the incoming enemies.
