I saw someone do this Tatsujin Oh once when I was in Osaka. Popped it in a dead zone and nonchalantly stepped out of the arcade and made a phone call. Such subtle hardcore.

Man, that was a next level reference. I had to do research and everything

I think there were actually two of these - one for each of the CX releases. Shmup knows how I came across them originally - probably found them in the back of the fridge one day

STAND STILL you little $£|+s !!! . Frenetic motion is the key property of #shmandala - enemies dance and jive in a way that gives things a unique trippy feel- like some sort of technicolor fever dream that you experience after you’ve been stung by an neon striped African jungle wasp. . #shmuplyf

That does look awesome. I didn’t think C64 was a currently enjoyable shmup platform until I found Relentless64. It’s cool to see these stripped down overclocked examples.

And then #xxgameroom drops #edenseclipse in the same week… fine fine, you got me, there are two things I need from bullet fest. . #shmuplyf #shmups #bullethell

As far as I’m concerned there is only one thing worth getting from steam bullet fest - and that’s the Infinity Lancer demo. Oh boy - the realest of #shmup. So much love <3

Thanks for reading them all! :3

R-type delta Hd too in a couple of days! Definitely shmup pouring at the moment 😄

Congrats man! What a journey. I imagine your hyper gauge is going to be full for a while now! 😄

But this is coming from like a middle aged white guy so I’m not kidding myself that my viewpoint is particularly textured.

I agree that the rhetoric could be a bit broader, and that’s something I’ve tried to embed into my content. At the same time, there is no platform to build on / respond to, without someone doing the ground work. There is no Modernism without Italian Futurism first.

Totally with you on this one 👍🏻 - had a similar thought a while back in trying to think through why sci-fi racing games give me the same feels - the sense of flow through repeated meditative practice loops and trying to create a good sequence while responding to tweaks in real time.

You know I’d be keen. 😄

Glad I still know what the hip young people are into :D

Birdcage?
