Post by Blinge »

I want the biggest most redonkulous looking player bullets to show a casual shmup appreciator.

Any suggestions?

Mushihimesama Futari Black Label: Reco's shot and laser are both ridiculously screen filling, the laser has lock-on components, it'd be generally one of the most ridiculous shot types ever made if it weren't for the enemies being able to fire their barrages before being killed due to the game design. Palm's laser fills the screen too, but only when you hit with the middle bullets.

Batsugun: Type B at max level has the strongest weapon in the game consisting of a straight laser, side wave shots, and a lock on electricity type of beam.

Kaikan: Type D literally floods the screen with gigantic walls of flame. Not the strongest in terms of direct damage but instantly hitting everywhere on screen whenever you feel like is damn good in stages.

Blue Wish Resurrection: Not the prettiest game but the laser allows you to fire and forget by just locking on to whatever you feel like. Shot is stronger and more concentrated. Laser bomb gives you a gigantic stream of these bullets for like 3 seconds.

I believe that's a reference to Fire Shark, in which the flamethrower does more or less the same thing, albeit somewhat toned down compared to Kaikan's utter insanity.

Type-Z Double Break in Crimzon Clover. Pull all the way back and it looks fucking stupid.

I'm pretty sure it is too! Good eye! It's shame the fire weapon in Fire Shark tends to get neglected in favor of the better, but blander looking spreadshot. The flame weapon just isn't as practical there. But it's really damn good in Kaikan so that's nice! :)

The big laser attack in G-Darius is quite a sight.

You mention DDP:DFK - it really is hard to top!!!

Doesn't one of the DDP:DFK arrange modes on the 360 have a stupidly wide shot spread?

It's not KetsuiPachi, although that is overwhelming-

I think it's one of the arrange modes on the English language version.

The objectively correct answer is Koishi's unfocused shot in Shining Shooting Star.

Not exactly a standard player shot, but big nevertheless!
