Crisis Wing - Out now!

[pieslice]

Revision version addresses some issues brought up with player feedback and also reactively tuned to my personal preferences.
It is slightly easier than Classic and has tighter pacing with some gotcha moments (eg. some surprise enemies from behind) removed or adjusted.

I would recommend 1CCing Revision first, 1CCing Classic after revision should not take that much more of an effort.
If you're not keen on the altered palette it can be disabled from the game options, making Revision background art look 1:1 to Classic. You can/should also switch the "default bullet color" setting to Pink for improved clarity.

If I would make an arcade version it would definitely be the Revision with Classic color scheme

Wow thank you for the quick and detailed reply!

Yes, I will go with Revision.

I think for me the biggest appeal is the "tighter pacing" but I will keep note of everything else!~

Haha, I post so long ago asking about this game... then only start play it yesterday because so many other things play >.<!~

Today reach area 2-4-7 but 1CC achievement did not unlock?~



I also post on Steam Discussion about this, but, thought I post here can show screenshot and also include some other info!~

There is bug where top left of screen can only show max 5 extends, even if have more. So if I get 6th extend, it still only show 5... but actually I have 6. I thought I lost one originally!!!

Does anyone know how to get more extend to drop from that Super Powerup Carrier thing?!?

Shmup Wiki say it can drop extend or 100K point item. I was surprised when I read! So far I only ever see 100K item drop!!

Game looks really pretty... but really, find quite often bullet visibility can be super bad (even if I select "pink bullet" from options)... too many different bullet shape and color against very colorful background and enemies (and even my own shot) means sometimes get lost. And... bomba activation speed really make Faith want go sleep. So slow! Really annoying cannot "reaction bomba" in this game. I know, because Toaplan/Tatsujin inspiration, so on. But, it is a different style, I guess. And still, welcome it! Hope can find out why achievement bug!~

Manage get achievement unlock after trying again, but this time, made sure start game clean, go straight into run... and not fail it, not restart it... first attempt 1CC after launch. And it work. Think something maybe bug with original run because had previous failed clear? Also, remember there is another problem... not sure if this is bug or design? But: if ship die all the way to side of screen... the power-up item your ship drop after death will "fall off" at side of screen and immediately disappear -_____-"... had one run, this happen in Stage 6... and was left with zero-power ship zzz.

For pieslice,

Is it possible to change the resolution of Crisis Wing to 320 x 240p so that it can be played on a 15.7kHz low-res arcade monitor setup?

I recall that an earlier firmware revision of CW did support that native resolution at one time. Is it possible to re-implement the 240p resolution back into the latest release of CW?

Just got Boss Rush ALL Clear -_-"... this mode... very sadistic!!!~

The bomb invulnerability is instantaneous, damage is synced to the skull animation.

For the color issues, did you try to disable the "use alt color palettes" option; it will revert the colors to the same as in Classic version when you enable the Revision mode. Classic version might have more refined bg colors as it's how the game is intended to look.

For the achievement I'll check if there's some state variable that does not get properly cleared when you restart the whole game without going to menus.
Please in mind that if you activate a cheat then all achievements and online and local leaderboard score saving is disabled for the rest of the session; you have to exit and re-launch the game to get them enabled again.

Did not even realize this game had cheats @_@"... can confirm, no cheat used. I did get achievement second time clear, on fresh game fresh start. I had chat with friend who also cleared game, and he also confirm he did not get achievement first time and something bug. He had to clear second time to get it. Also... there seem to be some bug with online leaderboard? When going to global leaderboard for one player revision, it not show global score properly for me (completely missing) until I change to show "friend score" and "your score" then change back to "show all score" to show properly >.<!~
