« Gamers Eloquently Posit Games as Art in Ludicrous Thought Experiment | Main | Shmups News »



Just looking at the gameplay video should make you want to give your computer a bath. Anyway, here's the gameplay instructions:

Z: Fire beam against enemies
X: Fire beam against bullets
Z + X: Fire strong beam against enemies (depletes time)
C: Change ship
F1: Toggle motion blur
F2: Launch highscore table
F3: Toggle random mode

Don't fire for too long, you'll overheat and explode! Don't let the time run out or you die. Killing enemies adds more time to the counter.

The game needs to be extracted before playing. There is an online highscore table too, so don't worry if it freezes up for a few secs, it's just sending your scores.

Use joy2key for joypad support!

YES YES YES!!!! Everything about this game rocks, in a glitch-core drum and bass kind-of-way...Awesome game! I just wish it had joypad support!

Ferkin excellent :D

Man, Tim, how did you get such a high score? I can only reach 15000+ -- maybe it has to do with switching ships when they're most effective?

there's a screenshot that answers one of your questions over at the2bears :)

Destroying bullets also increases your score?

Hm, no, it doesn't.

It's actually very addicting.

Remember kids, just like with girls, ugly games try harder..!Forget clean asia - trash is where it's at.

I've seen uglier... Like most of the earlier 3D PSX games.

'Addicting' is not, nor has it ever been, a word.

Sorry, I meant to say:"It's actually very addictorising".

er, i do believe 'addicting' is the present participle of 'addict'

Oh gods my EYES! They burn!It's obviously intentional, but the flashing graphics makes it barely playable.
