The title is actually meant to be read as "Dot Decluster - into the Bullet Hell". Interestingly, the Japanese title uses katakana for the 'Dot Decluster' part and English words for 'into the Bullet Hell', so the subtitle is likely meant to be for style purposes. Fully agree it would be better off titled "Dot Decluster: Into The Bullet Hell", though.
Finally beat stage 5 on normal, the bullet patterns in that entire stage are amazing. The bulletime slowdowns are at the perfect places too, this game is very well crafted. I agree, I like the name Dot Decluster: Into the Bullet Hell
As others have said, all this needs is Game Center. It's like DoDonPachi Max and Infinity Gene had a baby and named Kento Cho as godfather.
Seems like I am the odd one out here, but I actually like the icon. It fits with art style of the game.
hi guys. i am a developer of this game. thank you for telling me about this thread. i've just read all comments, i'm so happy! thank you for playing and many impressions. i want to add Game Center, on next update. and it seems that the app name should be corrected. ".Decluster: Into The Bullet Hell", is it strange? and thank you for giving 5stars on AppStore. i like your feedback and any questions.
Hello and welcome. Game Center is coming! Smash buy! Added: Could you please make a high scores table for each level and for one for each level of hardness longest run? It would be even better if you could also make that in Game Center.
First of all, welcome to TouchArcade! As far as the app name's concerned, I think the problem's not necessarily about the "into the Bullet Hell" part, but more specifically that even people who have bought the game (as you'll see here) have no idea (as Shaun pointed out) that the name of the game is actually Dot Decluster and not Decluster. If you're using the . "stylistically", that's something completely different, but yeah...I personally think the app name should be Dot Decluster: Into the Bullet Hell but .Decluster: Into the Bullet Hell works too.
Just bought this. Love the graphics. Controls work fine Agree about the title. Dot decluster would be better
Okay, I just bought the game and forget everything I said above. I had no idea the game has ".Decluster" in the menu and is intentionally called .Decluster. Like I said...forget all my stupid reasoning and whatever, because changing everything in the game would be INSANE. The game IS .Decluster! So yeah, I'd just change the app name to .Decluster: Into the Bullet Hell Now, with that aside...HOLY SHIT HOW GOOD IS THIS GAME!?!?!?!? EFKOHWDOFKHWHFKHWKOHKFJLWJELF Yep, all the game needs is Game Center. (Well, and that little name change, and perhaps just removing "HI-SCORE" from the app icon and centering the ship? ) OKAY...I'LL SHUT UP NOW!
Welcome to TouchArcade. Thanks for joining, and also thank you for making such a wonderful game! Game Center is the only thing I would ask for. The game itself is perfect as is. I would be interested in hearing a little of your development history and future plans - have you programmed other bullet hell games before? Do you have plans to make more in the future?
Hi MasayukiIto. Welcome to the forum! I wish you much success with this AMAZING game. As you can see, we all think .Decluster is absolutely brilliant. I'm wondering - have you worked on any bullet hell games in the past? Your enemy formations and bullet patterns are incredible. [EDIT] Ah, I see that xjaff has also asked the same question. I guess we are surprised that such an amazing bullet hell just appeared on the app store from out of nowhere! Also, did you make this game all by yourself? It's an incredible achievement. I'm now trying to get through level 3 on Normal difficulty... wow it is hard! But each time I play I get a bit further. That's a sign of a really well designed game.
Yes indeed. I've actually been wondering all day about the dev's previous work. There's no way a game this amazing could have come from a first-time-dev. Well, it's possible, but perhaps unlikely.
All I know is I want more. Hell I'll preorder! Take my money! I haven't stopped playing! I've played for hours! Billy Btw dev the level 3 boss, I hate you for this one! Lol
I didn't play much yet, and i still have to beat Boss 3 on easy. Any whistle-blower about your score in da house ? Interested what's possible to the point where i'm at (incl. Boss). Thanks in advance. Welcome dear Dev, congrats to this amazing looking and sounding gem! Love that brilliant music. (Btw, all I would change is to take out the Hi-Score from the icon and center the ship a bit. Nothing more.)
