BLUE REVOLVER [alpha demo]

[Van_Artic]

ill try my best to talk about this lil indie game thats coming out soon

http://bluerevolvergame.com/

This is the stage 1 demo that was released today for Blue Revolver, a new shooting game inspired by the likes of Cave and Raizing during the golden age of STG

this is what a love letter to those companies looks like
graphics are colorful and they remind me so much of Dodonpachi in terms of layout, the speed enemies move at, the way they often open up to shoot at you, and that cute character on the title screen too

and then it mixes Battle Garegga/Bakraid in terms of scoring system and focus on destroying various parts of the bosses and doing little bursts of chains using different weapon shots

the game also has a unique break mechanic in which chaining boss parts quickly will grant you big bonuses; figuring them out is fun and require just a minimum amount of thinking ahead and knowing by heart how much damage you're doing to them

imo its a match made in heaven with a few twists that make blue revolver very addicting

the plans for full release are 5 stage and a second loop (!)
