This is my first post here about our project. My wife and I have been making a bullet hell shmup, and we just posted our first playable demo on Itch. It's still a work in progress, so we're calling this an alpha demo. We'd love to get feedback from the shmup community!
If you watch the trailer, then it won't come as a big surprise that I'm a fan of Cave. My favorites include Mushi Futari, Espgaluda, and DDP Daioujou. We're also taking inspiration from games like RayForce, Batsugun, Eschatos, and lots of other stuff.
The finished game will be released on Steam, but we're doing this alpha demo on Itch. This demo has 2 stages, and we're planning for the full game to have 7.
We still have a long way to go, but this seemed like a good point to have people test it and get feedback. Tell us what you like or don't like! And please let me know if there are any crashes or tech issues. Thanks!
