So a new shmup's been out for a bit. One with a... twist.

Take a bit of Trouble Shooter, add a dash of Insector-X, put in shark girls in tight outfits with C-cup (at least) chests, mix in some retro-styled music, grab a little inspiration from the manic shmup world, and here you go. There's a one level demo of it you can try, and doesn't seem too bad. It's no Tecno Soft or Raizing quality shmup to be sure, but I've played a lot worse from the homebrew shmup world. Here's the website...

Anyone else tried it or own the full version? If so, thoughts?
Edit: Updated the link.

Re: Shark Attack
I'm not opposed to shark girls or anything, but I could drink an entire bar and that'd still be ugly. There doesn't seem to be anything on the gameplay front either. Oh yeah, "retro" points: Sine wave bullet "patterns" and lazy homing lasers, "chiptune" bleepers that would sound stale on the C64 in 1984. Also, where's the hitbox? Man, I feel at home already! I don't think you really have to invite this one home to smell how rotten she is.
Re: Shark Attack
A shmup from furries for furries (also sold to anthrocon and that says a lot). Wow. That's something new for me.
Re: Shark Attack
I honestly don't remember this, so maybe I did my worst and drained every bottle of Tanqueray and Gordon's in the place shortly after this topic. Dime-a-dozen furry art. Not bad, just doesn't aim very high.
Re: Shark Attack
Y'all know this is made by shmups forum regular Renard Queenston, right =P? It's a pretty decent effort for a 1-man show.
Re: Shark Attack
That only makes me more puzzled why it would have design decisions it does. Forum's about hard drinkin' and tough love, anyway.
Re: Shark Attack
Soooo...has anyone played it? Is it good? Is it crap?

It's weird that this video about a game nobody played has much more dislikes than likes.

Re: Shark Attack
No one's played it because no one can find it 
The original website's gone, and while I know for a fact that I saw the game downloadable for free (the guy released it as such), I can't even find that anymore. I did find the link on that Mega site where you can download the final version of the game, but I don't think I can post it here without also finding where it was said that the game's free now.
