And because there isn't enough bullet hell game on mobile device, I've decided to work on something and finally here it is.

This should be available in app store soon. I'm going to release a lite version so that people can try the game for free I wish I could release a beta and let you guys try the game before I submit to app store, but due to the nature of indie iOS game development, that isn't happening anytime soon. Grr.

Looks awesome... too bad I'm not a cell phone guru that plays games on them. Glad to see someone taking the initiative on it though. Good luck!

You pay 99 usd to develop for iOS right?

Thank you! And yes, you have to pay $99 annually in order to put your app on the app store.


I'm looking for a way to make a danmaku game on the android too. I don't own an iPhone ( I use my friend's phone to develop the game ) but I have an android. And android sure need some shmup love <3

Aw man, it makes me WISH I had an iPhone too.

funny name though, "It Shoots, You Dodge"- isn't that exactly what we've been doing for the last umpteenth years?

You should add something like Shoot the Bullet's scoring mechanic to make it more interesting.

For the last 20 or so years, yes. Before that, the lower bullet count of 80s shoot-em-ups meant it worked the other way round.

With this game, I've finished a shmup engine that can be used again in the future. Our next game is a bullet hell shmup on iPad with a unique feature
It's underdevelopment right now and I'll make sure people here will hear about it once it's ready to be announced!

Bumping with praise!

Started playing today - really enjoying it so far!

Looks good, plays great. Managed to snag no. 1 place on Mission 2A
But i suck at all the other missions (!!) Perhaps just a lucky run

On sale at the moment, definitely worth a look!
