Anyone played Enceladus?

Post by FRO »

I was introduced to Enceladus via one of the shmup Discord servers a few days ago, and it's intriguing me. I didn't find any threads about it here, so I'm curious to know if this slipped under everyone else's radar, not just my own:

It's very visually appealing, and the warp mechanic has me interested. It's apparently been on Steam for nearly 3 years now, but this is the first I've heard of it.

I can't seem to find it on any other stores and it doesn't help that there's two other games with the same name. Is there DRM?
Of course, that's just an opinion.
Always seeking netplay fans to play emulated arcade games with.

The only release I've seen is the Steam release, so I assume so.

Video looks cool. I see some nods to Night Raid in there. Added to wishlist.

It's also on Itch.

I actually have this in my backlog someplace, but haven't given it much time; from what little I can remember it didn't light my world on fire, but I'd need to give it a fairer shake to judge it.

Thanks for the link, BulletMagnet! I tried searching for it on Itch, and for some reason, it didn't come up in my search, either for the game name, or the dev's name.

You like warp mechanics you say?

Have you played Valkyrius?

You're sure to be in a fine haze about now, but don't think too hard about all of this. Just go out and kill a few beasts. It's for your own good. You know, it's just what hunters do! You'll get used to it.

I have not! This is another one that seems to have escaped my shmup radar. Thanks for the link, I'll have to add this to the wishlist, as well.
