A gem in the bulletheaven genre
This is truly a rare gem in the overcrowded and trivialized bulletheaven genre. It has by far the best art direction I've seen in those games and even a little surreal side narrative. The pixel art sci-fi space invaders environment looks and feels super nice and the UI with its source code stylized descriptions really gives it a dreamy digital aura. Plus this bulletheaven actually mixes in bullet hell boss enemies which absolutely adds depth to the whole experience. Underrated this one!
My eyes are bleeding and my head is about to explode! Thank you Lygodesma for suggesting this, it really is something else. The soundtrack is incredible if you enjoy breakbeat and jungle music reminiscent of the early PlayStation era, milkypossum has done an amazing job with it.
so wait a second, did an Italian indie dev from Tuscany (perhaps unknowingly) flip the STG genre on its head with this 'bullet heaven' concept and Komiket has been losing their minds since 2023 with various ports and such based off this concept? I didn't know that at all... what an interesting cultural exchange... Peak fusion alchemy.
