Before i had downloaded this i was already playing a different bullet hell game. And I had gotten pretty bored as I found it (and I still do) find it too easy. So I went on the app store and found this. At first I thought it was gonna be very similar to the last one. I was wrong. Very wrong. First off, whenever I get a mobile game, and see the line "in app purchases" I start to wonder whether the game is pay-to-win (Fun Fact: most of the time it is), and this was no different. Now I know that this is not pay-to-win, very far from it. The only things that you can buy are the different weapon types, and these are entirely opinion based. Second the visuals. In my opinion the game does this pretty good (no context). Third, the gameplay. I would say that this is the worst factor of the game just because it's harder for new players to the genre to good. But really this is just a flaw with the genre itself and doesn't really take back anything from the quality of the game. It's hard, but not too hard (at least for players that aren't new to the genre), and often times I find myself playing this game for hours. Overall it's one of the best of it's kind and I would really recommend it, even if this is your introduction to the genre because it's easy to learn.Edit: I just wanted to add that this is game makes me want to buy things in-game just to support the creators. Keep it up!

I went in expecting this to just be another shooter until…🔷The controls I noticed was extremely smooth, the visuals really popped out with color, and the difficulty was mostly just right. 🔷The music creates the feeling of being a Hi-Speed shooter and dodging Thousands of bullets. It fits the gameplay perfectly as the gameplay has bullets being shot everywhere. 🔷There are 3 modes. CHAPTER is complexing. It make you do missions within acts to achieve mission points and move on. CHALLENGE sets all obstacles of each chapter into one big act and has 4 difficulty levels. EXTRA has endless modes. They will set you up against enemies and bosses in a random order with rising difficulty.🔷As the game requires skill it has many features to make up for mistake. Bombs are the ships special ability, auto-bomb helps preventing you from losing ships incase of misfortunes, and automatic item absorption helps collect items without needing the risk to moving to it, and more. I seems to have very few issues to where it really doesn’t matter as it was handled better than any other ship shooter and that makes this the best one out there…

Just skip the dev’s first game; it was mediocre. This is a massive improvement and as others have pointed out, is comparable to the old CAVE shooters (except in graphics unless you really like geometric shapes). Most of the ship types are gated by payment (can be rented using earned points) but the unlockable ones are pretty good. Tbh the p2w ships really take the fun out of the game, though some have cool mechanics like the blade one. If you are a bullet hell fan, just stick to the base ships and challenge yourself. The levels are designed around them anyway and the bullet type swap mechanic allows for variety in play during a stage. Also, if you don’t want to grind the points to upgrade the base ships, the dev offers a one time payment to do just that, which might diminish enjoyment for some but is a welcome option for those who want to skip ahead to the really hard stuff. All things considered, I really like that the dev thought hard about how to monetize so that people can get the experience they want. Can’t wait for the next, keep at it!

This dev is talented. .Decluster was mediocre at best, and you wouldn't expect their next game to be a huge step up. This game, however, is excellent. It takes 99% of the flaws with the previous game, fixes them, and then adds a ton of awesome features. There are 5 chapters with 10 short levels each, but they are a blast to play through. You also get a 'challenge mode' which plays more like a traditional shmup. And now there's endless mode as well if there wasn't already enough content. This mode is also a ton of fun to play, but it could do with some kind of rank management (a way to manage the difficulty). All of this for a grand total of zero dollars/euros/gold coins/etc. There are dlc ships you can get by paying, but the game doesn't try to force you to buy them and the three default ships are more than capable. If you don't have this game, you're missing out on the very best App Store shooting game.
