They bore me somewhat, but I'll get this if someone can convince me otherwise. Xanthos Well-Known Member Jul 25, 2009 78 2 8 #5 Xanthos, Aug 25, 2010 This is bullet hell, not your normal boring top down shooters like 1942. Bullet Hell games always has a huge cult following on the net. Citsade Well-Known Member Feb 9, 2010 80 0 0 #6 Citsade, Aug 25, 2010 Bullet hell games like this have a faster pace than most top-down shooters currently available for the Ipod/Iphone. It's best researched by looking at Youtube videos of some bullet hells (don't just look at the end-game, high difficulty videos, those are overwhelming)...and trying them out for free. Try rRootage which is free for a good example of bullet hell. Vally Well-Known Member Mar 18, 2009 368 0 0 #7 Vally, Aug 25, 2010 But not an exceptionally great example of a CAVE game. CAVE's shmups differ from most others because of the scoring systems that they implement. If you want an example of how complex some of the scoring systems they put in their shmups can be, check out the ESPGaluda II thread or scoring explanation guide that I helped write with a few other people here. Their games are excellent due to the way they play for score. You can shoot your way through the whole game probably quite easily but your score will be completely naff until you figure out chaining, how to properly use your hypers, and how to manage your hit counter. Soi-Fong Well-Known Member Aug 5, 2010 94 0 0 Illinois #8 Soi-Fong, Aug 25, 2010 Oh f yeah!!! Can't wait for this and Cave, you know you want to put Espgaluda II on sale!!! TouchChatterbox Well-Known Member May 21, 2009 593 0 0 #9 TouchChatterbox, Aug 25, 2010 How big is it to download? Looks great though. Now I have an iPhone 4 and not just a 3G I'll be able to play this one! Grubjelly Well-Known Member Jun 19, 2009 1,118 0 0 #10 Grubjelly, Aug 25, 2010 Based on the video and the description of the combo system perused on the net, already I like dododpachi much better than espgaluda II, even though I've never played the former. Less of the grating jrpg themed characters and bosses (less shrieking, etc), better balance between survivalism (I.e. actually difficult to reach the "second loop") and combo chaining; the concept of "chain" itself developed to reward specific damage-dealing patterns; the logistics and scoring considerations of the shot/laser modes seem fresh; the new "overstock" multiplier system also sounds promising. At least with Dodonpachi one doesn't to need to read up on such details as "absolute awakening" before playing in order to hit the ground running, since any new player may be quickly briefed on the essential strategies and "second loop" criteria before playing. Soi-Fong Well-Known Member Aug 5, 2010 94 0 0 Illinois #11 Soi-Fong, Aug 25, 2010 It should be around the size of Espgaluda II. metalcasket Moderator Staff Member Patreon Silver Patreon Gold Patreon Bronze May 24, 2010 11,065 1,342 113 Deepest Circle, Hel #12 metalcasket, Aug 25, 2010 According to the NZ link, it's nowhere near as small as Espgaluda II is. It's 327mbs Vally Well-Known Member Mar 18, 2009 368 0 0 #13 Vally, Aug 25, 2010 True in a way. ESPGaluda II was much more complex on paper than in gameplay. Once you understood the scoring hook, it was smooth and beautiful. Dodonpachi has always had an easily accessible scoring system to understand. The chaining system is so simple to learn yet so hard to master. Dodonpachi Daioujou kinda threw a spanner in the works with that, by being ball bustingly hard and having incredibly strict chaining routes. It introduced the 'Hyper', and as such, in order to get top scores you had to pre-plan your destruction and 'routes' through the levels, which ended up in there being one super route for you to follow through the whole game in order for you to get the best score. That's why I like ESPGaluda II over Daioujou at least, because ESPGaluda didn't have any of that 'preplanned route' bollocks to it. You adapted as you went along. From what I understand though, Daifukkatsu/Resurrection does away with the strict routes by the way your hyper builds up hit counter by cancelling bullets, so it should be a lot more fun to play for me. currymutton Well-Known Member Oct 16, 2008 4,430 1 0 #14 currymutton, Aug 25, 2010 I will be damned, 2 good shooters in the same day! Soi-Fong Well-Known Member Aug 5, 2010 94 0 0 Illinois #15 Soi-Fong, Aug 25, 2010 Really... Damn. lol Either it's the new BGM's they were talking about or they actually improved the graphics a bit as well. metalcasket Moderator Staff Member Patreon Silver Patreon Gold Patreon Bronze May 24, 2010 11,065 1,342 113 Deepest Circle, Hel #16 metalcasket, Aug 25, 2010 Between this, Cave Run, R-Type and Knight's Rush, it's gonna be a bad day on my ****ing limited bandwidth.
