I do think that dangun feveron is a fantastic game, although I can see how some people wouldn't like it if they went into this game expecting a typical cave experience.

On a side note, are there gameplay differences between fever sos and dangun feveron?

Don't think so outside of the TLB no longer being completely free if you don't bomb like it is in Dangun.

I'd love to see an arrange mode of Dangun with Muchi Pork style gold medalling instead of Disco men that bounce upward. Admittedly, I'm not a fan of Dangun as it is today.

The scoring system is the biggest turn off for me as well although I love the game. Amazing soundtrack, fast as hell bullets, ship speed and weapon choices.

Maybe if the penalty for missing 1 disco guy wasn't so steep I'd enjoy the scoring more.

I think it was a bad move, but to be fair missing a disco man is actually pretty tough to do. It can happen, but you have like a million frames to bomb or even suicide for another bomb if one is going towards the top too much.

The punishment is harsh, but you've got plenty of opportunities avoid the punishment. They drift down the screen slowly, and they also drift upwards after that, and bombing freezes them in place so you can grab them (and you get quite a few bombs throughout the game too). That's way more leeway than you get in many other games.
