This is one of your earlier games, right? It looks quite simplistic compared to your other games.
Got this game in the Back To School bundle. I'm a fan of bullet hell games and so far I'm really enjoying this one. I'm just wondering if there's any way to pause the game during play? The Escape key just closes the game completely.
I thought this was mentioned in the manual but maybe I'm mistaken; The pause key is "T".
I had to look in the manual for this one. It's a rather unintuitive choice for a pause key.
(crap, can't delete. Disregard)
Cheers. I actually didn't realise there was a manual in the game folder. It does mention it in that :)
Glad to have this. Experiencing an issue though: trying to play with a 360 controller, but I can only move in four directions when doing so (as opposed to eight when using the arrow keys). Any way to remedy this?
Using a cheap $15 Logitech gamepad, and it works fine for me. I can move in all 4 directions and diagonals with the stick and/or dpad. I like dpad more though.
I don't see why a 360 controller should work any different, my gamepad is pretty much a 360 knockoff.
Wish you guys would of made this game available physically like you did for the Gundemonium and Suguri collections. I always prefer my shmups in physical form but hey, one way or another, at least now I can play it :]
Thanks for making this available agian, since Direct2Drive is no longer a thing or offering it anymore. Really appreciate it :D
