  1. "Cotton Fantasy: Superlative Night Dreams" (PS4)

    I picked this up a while back on a recommendation, and finally had a little time to play it.

    I played through Cotton's story on normal mode with a bunch of continues and a fight stick, and it is a lot of fun! Funny story, neat shmup mechanics, and vibrant colors. Looking forward to the additional stories.

  14. Truxton Extreme review: Nostalgic perfection shmupping
    The developers behind Truxton Extreme have somehow beautifully captured the best essences of classic SHMUPs, and J.J. is frothing at the mouth to talk about it!

  16. So, whilst I try to figure out something to play next, I decided to revisit a game I hadn't quite finished fully yet.

    Super Aleste or Space Megaforce's advanced difficulties were always quite daunting especially Wild/Lunatic difficulty, where enemies move faster, take more damage and when they die, launch a death bullet at you. Even certain obstacles launch a wave of bullets at you and it can get overwhelming pretty quickly.

    Thankfully these bullets can be shot down with specific weapons (Laser and Power shots charge-up and beam), but it's not a perfect counter measure.

    The real saving grace is infinite continues, allowing you to restart from a checkpoint or the start of the stage. It does become a bit of an exercise in patience, but the journey has been quite satisfying. I should probably revisit GG Aleste 2 and 3, as those games are also absolutely fantastic.
