Three characters, each with a different shooting pattern, and different speed. Choose the one that best fits your playing style.
Enemy waves have a fixed pattern, encouraging them to be memorized to facilitate gameplay. Just like old arcade games.
Four levels in retro style. Face Youkai girls at the end of each one.
Soundtrack by authors of classical music, in chiptune style
Made on Pico-8, a fictional virtual console, created to impose the limitations and low-resolution of the 8bit era and simulate the sensation of playing a game from that time.
Anime like pixel art style. Drawn pixel by pixel, in a 16-color palette.
