go fuck yourself. i am playing crimzon clover on easy mode because i am a shitter. i bought one of those flipgrips for my switch so i can play it on my couch like a lazy piece of shit

Well that was a bust. Guess there's Salamander III and Cotton coming soon.

>>713006834
steven is a dumbass who badmouthed mame while defending the toaplan ports in steam
steven is a moron

>Mfw Success doesn't actually work on Cotton anymore since they're a shovelware dev now
I'm thankful for Saizensen and Rocket Engine, if Success actually made a new Cotton themselves it would turn out worse than Rainbow.

>>713007030
okay but shitch 2 does suck tho...

the average shmup player
this genre is too hard for its own good

great the cotton shill is in this thread
buy an ad and kill yourself lolicon

>>713007278
no i just recently got into the genre.
>>713007185
is cotton reboot any good? i see it on sale frequently

>>713007416
>no i just recently got into the genre.
so what?
most shmup players are terrible
toaplan died because their games were too hard even for arcade players

>oh cool i haven't played aerofighters since that mexican restaurant near me with the cabinet closed down
>new aerofgt is $60
??? what were they thinking ???

>>713007416
It's very good, it's an excellent remix of X68000 Cotton, trying to aim for high scores is a blast especially when you're trying to manage crystals. My only complaint is that the screen can get very crowded, it's on par with Deathsmiles in that regard.
If you don't play remakes out of principle then High Tension is going to have everything Reboot had but with entirely new levels and story.

Reboot also comes bundled with a very faithful recreation of the original X68000 game if you don't want to emulate it, just keep in mind that it's still not the original arcade version.
>>713007986
Success is delusional when it comes to pricing, wait for the summer sale for it to drop down to 10$ or a few bucks

>>713006576
Stayvun, why did you make that post, Stayvun?

I'm not much of a shmup player but I'd like to chime in and say I hope this individual by the name of xEbb1994x gets killed.

where the fug are you seeing a demo?

>>713009869
Isn't there a demo on Steam? Then I pirated the switch version. My bad.

>>713009978
There was a Steam demo of the new Tatsujin game (kicks ass btw), maybe you're thinking of that.

They do, however.

kamui is the best battle garegga player so
this is normal

>>713011927
garegga sucks

>>713011987
>garegga sucks
if you are a shitter yeah

Unlike the large majority of games which primarily exist to be good games, Battle Garegga has a thesis which flows through every facet of the game’s design:

You can do anything, but everything has consequences.

As you play, this thesis is continually reinforced. The weapon system gives you precise control over both where you want to fire and how much firepower you want to use. The scoring system is discrete enough to let players choose the opportunities they wish to take. Even the story, wherein a pair of engineers unwittingly empower a vicious regime through their own creations and now must stop it by their own hands, has a strong individualistic streak running through it.

You can do anything, but everything has consequences. Which leads to the second rule of Garegga: take what you need and make the most of what you have. While Garegga is rather famous for having a dynamic difficulty system integrated into every element of the game, this inclusion is necessary for giving the gameplay meaning. Allow the player to greedily collect powerups without consequence and there would be no downside; like in CAVE games, the powerup would become a mandate instead of a free choice. Likewise, start the game at full power and the game would need to be rebalanced around that. You could no longer choose to power up for specific situations to get the upper hand before dying and slinking back under the radar. You could no longer dictate the rules of engagement; you’d be forced to fight every situation straight.

But this also reveals one of the beauties of Garegga: your wits can make up for where your reflexes fail. Troublesome bosses can be crippled, and annoying enemies can be bombed or sealed or fought from behind—often with no direct penalty. Yes, at some point a compromise will need to be made, but you can plan around when and how that compromise will occur. Garegga is a game that rewards thoughtful play, a bit of reflection can dramatically swing the odds in your favor.

Choking at the last stage is the intended DOJ experience.
That and the second boss for some reason.

>>713006082 (OP)
This might be one of the most stale genres in history of videogames but shmupfags (primarily cavefags) are so averse to any changes to the formula that they act rabid dogs.

>>713016752
Why fixing what's not broken?
And pretty much every proposed change is just an attempt to casualize or make a different genre with shmup aesthetics.

>>713016752
>reeee stop liking thing!

Is blud wrong doh??

>>713016752
This.
We need to turn shmups into third person story-heavy moviegames with a narrative about revange bad and becoming a better person

>>713016846

well most shmup players are casuals who dont even play these games

thanks anon (for the ads!)

I like this one called Counter Attack Uprising. Feels so satisfying.

stop shilling your shovelware
bunch of clowns

Oy vey, someone playing shmups isn't spending mon- playing our triple A slop live services, SHUT IT DOWN

>>713025273
these games are just indie crap
at least talk about psikyo or namco games
not this shallow shovelware

I like Giga Wing. Collecting the metric fuckton of golden shinies that the game pours on you by the truckful pleases my primitive monkey brain.

>>713012420
I think Battle Garegga sounds cool conceptually, but I just can't get into the boring military aesthetic. Replace everything with flying magical girls and it would be perfect. I guess I should Pink Sweets another chance.

>>713025409
>namco games
GOOD GOYIM! PLAY TEKKEN 8! THE LAST GOOD ARCADE GAME EVER MADE!!

>>713025552
namco was a shmup developer dumbass
dragon spirit and dragon saber were developed by namco

>>713025539
>Replace everything with flying magical girls
FUCK YOU

>>713025717
Ok, where the new namco shmup for this year then, dumbfuck.

>>713025863
who cares about new shmups?
all of them are just shovelware

>>713006082 (OP)
I think oink sweets SUCKS!

i hate and love raiden

>>713026009
And forgotten trash from psikyo or namco wasn't shovelware? Lmao
new shmups do more for the genre than most of the mid 2000's last "big" publishers' shmups

>>713026884
dragon blaze is better than any new shmup
are you an indie dev or something?

>>713026495
>oink sweets
Anon?

>>713027085
No, just not a dumbfuck boomer retard out of his anti old good NEW BAD- meds.
I don't like it either mind you, but big publishers are done with shmups so we can only rely on smaller devs, and new shmups are just as good as the older big productions because shmup isn't a genre where your budget or team size even matter. You seem to have something against indies devs but I think the average indie dev today basically have staff sizes that are similar to how psikyo or cave were when they were active, there's no difference in the end.
And yes some of the better shmups were released recently and even better will eventually get released, cope.

>>713028615

FUCK THEM AND FUCK YOU

>I will buy it when it releases... on switch.

LOL TRUE

Someone should try to set a serious record on the Reboot version of Coton X86000 (Steam) because I finished the game only once on normal without even trying and already came in second, I think, on the leaderboard.

>>713024304
This but on steam
