ALLTYNX 2nd Trial Released

July 21st, 2010

 

Siter Skain’s newest SHMUP is looking pretty neat, although I do have to say that the sword-ship is starting to get a tad bit overdone, and this one is particularly overpowered for at least stage one with its ability to simultaneously erase entire boss attacks while simultaneously inflicting absurd amounts of damage. Swords should not overpower giant beams. I guess that doesn’t help when you charge straight into the boss’ maw though. It also looks like they’re almost sort of trying to copy Ether Vapor’s amazingly cinematic presentation, but aren’t quite there yet. The second level’s giant fight against a satellite is also made of frustration when its pieces completely cover the screen, preventing you from seeing yourself or the enemy bullets. Full version’s due out in a month at Summer Comiket.

6 Shouts From the Peanut Gallery

    Railgun’s Panties gets released on the 25th right? You planning to translate it Aroduc?

  • sage says:

    Swords should not overpower giant beams

    Unless the sword shoots beams. Or beam swords.

    (Please come back ;_; )

  • karasu says:

    What the? Did it just shoot diagonally BACKWARDS? Isn’t that one of the things Shumps DON’T do?

    Also, rather than Ether Vapor, it looks more like Raystorm on PSX; there’s an exact same level in there.

    • Aroduc says:

      Both of the Energy attacks can shoot behind you. A-Mode shoots homing lasers, and B-Mode turns the ship towards whatever you’re locked onto, although you can only use the sword or laser.
