Gothic wa Mahou Otome: Sassato Keiyaku Shinasai!(CAVE ios...

[pbsk8]

Sine Mora 2d vertical shmup inspired?

That "57 seconds left".

I am not worried, they are putting a lot of effort on it.

[NTSC-J]

Anyone here able to read what the text on the images says?

"Easy to control!
With the touch of a finger you can shoot! dodge! earn points or gold or something!
With two types of shot and your own raw skill you can experience awesome SHT game action!
Wield the incredible power of a group of young lolis and save the world!
Power up! Evolve! Get out there and kick ass!
LOVE MAX! Go for it you nerd!
Fight together and awaken the power of love!"

There's more but you get the idea.

[Muchi Muchi Spork]

Is it supposed to be ironic to use SHT instead of STG since SHT is so much closer to "shit"? I...don't get it.

[NTSC-J]

SHT wasn't in the original text, I just threw it in because it's the original term for shooting games in Japan and it's the one that Ikeda himself uses to refer to the genre.

And I'm hoping the game is some good SHT.

[Cagar]

Hmm i'm actually getting a little hyped for this.

[Satan]

"Go for it you nerd!"

[CloudyMusic]

Credit to them for not taking themselves too seriously, at least.

[Ikazu-san]

At least that Ikeda portrait gives some hope.
Just gotta pray for outside-of-Japan release.

[Muchi Muchi Spork]

I hope I'm proven wrong but I would say there is not even a 1% chance of this getting an English release. If it has rpg elements then it's going to be getting updates like DonP did and there is no way in hell they are going to have someone on the payroll translating it all.

[Pretas]

Taito isn't as big as they used to. Also they stopped making console games and focus on smartphone games (mainly iOS), just like many other japanese games (SNK Playmore is another victim of this trend with only releasing few, old games on Steam once in a while).

But SNKP has a new 3D KOF for consoles in development, which even got bumped up to next-gen. They're also working on a new line of Neo-Geo ports for all current Playstation systems.

Also, SNKP is still more strongly defined by their pachinko machines than their mobile apps nowadays, though they haven't completely abandoned the traditional gaming sector like Irem has.

"Go for it you nerd!"

That part was more creative license on my part. Literally, it says "LOVE MAX! Decide! Love Max!" The rest is fairly accurate.

I had wondered. Made me lol.

[guigui]

Isn't the game supposed to be out today ? Anyone tried it ?

[Cata]

Yea still curious to see whats its all about

[Special World]

I assume this is only on the Japanese marketplace?

[Muchi Muchi Spork]

As of right now it's not showing up in the JP ios marketplace under Cave Co Ltd.'s list of apps.

[pbsk8]

Was the game supposed to be released today?

I checket Itunes JP and even Donpachin is not there anymore. They removed it?

[ProjectAKo]

Wield the incredible power of a group of young lolis and save the world!

rip

I'm not sure where the rumor of this release date came from. Don*Paccin was removed.

[NTSC-J]

The official site has always said late February.

[Aisha]

PV: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pNAvWbhBelg

Release date is April 16.

There are hardly any bullets in the game-play footage.

[monouchi]

Production quality looks high though.

[Cata]

Yea the game is really obscured from view. Crazy that its coming out in April and not this month

[Shepardus]

I wonder what the bar of character portraits at the bottom of the screen (shown at around 30 seconds in) is for - maybe some sort of polarity thing with the colored circles in the playing area?

Now that we've got voices to the characters, better start choosing your waifus. Purple one's mine.

[Oniros]

Wield the incredible power of a group of young lolis and save the world!

rip

Let's face it, if your game isn't called Raiden or Eschatos there's a 99% chance it will have lolis. I am conflicted, on one hand this could be decent (like DDP Maximum). On the other, these resources could be spent porting their past quality stuff to XBLA. Why did they fucking stop at Guwange? Why Cave ;_;

[Formless God]

The left screen at 0:37 looks like stage 2 material actually
What the fuck is Critical
Looks like it has more object variety than the usual CAVE game already lmao. I'm actually looking forward to it.

Purple one's mine.

ill fite u bitch

[Eaglet]

Looks like shit unfortunately.
It's hard to imagine how we got to this weird ass point.

[Cagar]

Doesn't look that bad to me tbh.
Seems like a loli-version of donpaccin with more bullets
(Yeah, the trailer actually showed more bullets than Donpaccin did)

EDIT: I'll take the smug dark-blue one

[Ikazu-san]

These are probably just few levels. Maybe at the endgame you'd have to starting a bombfest just to get your 360nomiss bonus.

Also, LOL at you, people deciding a true one already. Don't you guys know that harem ending most likely will be the only way to get every upgrade?

[spadgy]

Hmmm. (Sorry - just catching up after some time away). Really does look like Deathsmiles-Donpacchin with a sprinkle more bullets. Youtube video mentions 'RPG' so some emphasis on characters and ability level-ups (F2P stuff)?

I guess Cave have got to make money somehow. Doesn't look my bag, but I still trust their ability to deliver quality. Maybe it'll turn out to be some new and wonderful spin on the genre I couldn't imagine. Maybe.

why is ikeda even still there

I thought I'd read that he'd set up shop at a different company a little ways back...maybe they had him back just for this project, sort of like they did with Joker Jun at one point after he'd left.

Consulting then? Showing them where some Deathsmiles code is tucked away on an old hard drive?
