Interesting choice; first view of this game (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x5yuok1DRgo) looks not that interesting.
Has anybody experience with this?

Hopefully but I think that the Exa has so many shooters in the works now that there is a fear the arcade market could get flooded with them if they are released too soon together so some might have to get spaced out or something.

We went from desert to flooded overnight. Crazy!

Wow, nice.

I learned about Heiankyo Alien games not long ago while searching for something from pac-man and dig dug era (I love Digger but it was pc only until some remakes), and was very happy with this psychedelic remake (like in case with pac-man championship series - enchanced audiovisuals and mechanics/scoring), so glad to see it gets arcade version now.

HG101 has retrospective btw http://www.hardcoregaming101.net/heiankyo-alien/
Though maybe there are better articles out there, idk

I'm really glad to see this game get an arcade version.
Huge fan of Heiankyo Alien 3671 here. I've put 80+ hours into it.

I wrote a full review that goes a bit more in-depth on how everything works - http://www.cubed3.com/review/4335/1/hei ... 71-pc.html

Nice review!

I like Cubed3 since Flower Sun and Rain review which was surprisingly adequate.
