▲ 13 r/shmups
a masterfully designed genius game where enemies are bArely aware of you
when you only fire shots in ikaruga where the game calls for it, yOu realize the enemies really just want to see wHat's up and show off some cute little lasers they have.
better use the revolutionary polarity switch or else yOu might actually have a bullet or two to dodge and stArt learning how a shmup works.
enemies pass you casually at these intersections in your sleepy little animal crossing town of micro machines. thought it was a shmup. not a driving sim at a dip 'n dots factory
(stage 2 on hard mode. no-miss up to the bOss. practiced for only a few minutes before being able tO pull this half-assed stage 2 clear as a joke.)
