Makes with the working
V-
- It FKS up detecting my resolution.
- I switch from 3840 to 1080 often for recording and its too busy chomping that glue-stick to give a FK.

Shiny / Sounds
V-
- Hell, it looks good at 3840×2160.
- They actually took the time to add proper resolution options.
- I’m pointing this out since it was originally created for mobile.
- It nails the visual “feel” of the long long ago.
- While that may be the most Hipster thing I’ve ever said ..it’s fact-sauce.
- I don’t hate the sounds.
- In fact, they really help with that Hipster “feel” BS I was just on about.
- That said, I would not have minded something a touch more metal.
J-
- Like Venn said, looks pretty good at ze 4k
P-
- Soundtrack got noped two seconds in.
- Graphics are alright. Nothing to write home about, but they’re alright.

Control
V-
- Worked OOTB /w the Xclone controlla.
- This is very important since I would flat out refuse to play the game with a keyboard/gerbil comco.
- Unable to rebind the controls? Minus two chairs.
- And that’s just a damn shame because you have to use some right proper contortion to fire ze laser without triggering the shield. .
J-
- the stock controls on the xbox controller seem to be fine
- Haven’t gotten to the point where I can afford a shield, so I’m not sure about that part
P-
- The fuck is up with that floaty ass mouse movement?
- Baby’s first Sh’m’up!
- It even fires automatically, lest you actually find some challenge in the game.
- Apparently it only fires automatically if you use the mouse/keyboard.
- The NVidia controller worked after the usual xinput spiel.
- In 2015 and some developers think it’s still okay to not allow players to rebind controls.

FUN
V-
- It reminds me of a slower paced Strikers 1945 Plus.
- Note: I found some long-plays of 45 Plus and a chunk of the comments were “you sped up the video” / “UNpossible! Nobody can move like that”
- …my generation could.
- I’m not a fan of collecting X amount of medals to progress (that was part of the iOS/Android port to extract $$$) since it artificially inflates game time.
- At the end of the day they did an okay job converting a “pay to prevent grinding” game into something playable without microtransaction.
- It loses a chair for no online multiplayer and one for dat price.
- Pick this up when it goes 50% off.
J-
- I fucking hate shmups
- However, this one isn’t so bad
- It at least rewards you for improving by giving you the option to upgrade your ship
P-
- I don’t hate sh’m’ups.
- In fact, I liked Jamestown a lot!
- I also happen to like the Touhou series.
- The only thing this game has going for it is the Portuguese translation.
- Yeah, that’s how far I had to dig to find something positive to say about it.
