I'll give this game a weak "recommend". It's a very difficult shoot-em-up, which may or may not be your thing (some people do enjoy difficult bullet hell games). It's not as bad as it sounds for more casual players (like myself) though, since player can continue right where they die instead of having to restart the level. The music is interesting, and the price is not expensive. A weakness of this game is there's...
