As usual, another shooter from Japan that doesn't disappoint. One unique feature in Tobi Tsukihime is a pod that can be directed and sent out to destroy enemies at any angle. The X and C keys are used to control the pod in different ways.

Holding down the primary shot button will allow you to fire rapidly. A small target indicating your hit point will be shown as well when you have the Z key depressed.

The demo is pretty short but does showcase enough to get any shmup veteran excited. A 20MB trial version was only recently posted for download, which can be accessed from this page.
