This is a bullet hell shooter - in other words, every enemy in the game is armed to the hilt, will be throwing bullets at your poor avatar like it's going out of fashion and has armour plating to boot. The developer has had some practise at producing bullet hell already with their previous titles which include Blue Wish Resurrection and the dubiously-titled Green Wind and have taken that experience forward into this. The player characters are a couple of sorceresses called Maple and Nanathy (there are more to unlock apparently, although it's going to take a serious amount of skill to achieve) who, along with being able to fly unaided, are able to sling streams of powerful spells at their enemies and each witch girl has her own firing pattern, special attack and a stock of bombs available. Stabbing repeatedly at the main fire button will produce a stream of bullets... erm, spells and holding it down both focuses the firing forwards (Maple's bullet patterns are already more forward-facing) whilst slowing down the girl's movement to aid with manoeuvring between bullets. There are also options to tweak the game, players can choose to enable or disable both the "auto guard" and "wait" features from the options menu (the former is similar to a smart bomb, except that it doesn't need a frenzied stab at the controls to trigger in emergencies and instead fires automatically on impact, whilst the latter causes the game to deliberately slow itself down should the action become intense) and at the start of play there are three difficulty modes labelled as "heaven", "normal" and "hell". |
