### 2/5 — Top much White

*2020-12-27*

Screen is Gilles to 50% with my Owen Energy Bean. Looks Bad in a smaller Screen. Otherwise Okay.

### 1/5 — Way too much going on too early.

*2019-12-30, version 1.1.2*

This game isn’t as expected. Waste of $5 because I played it for a few seconds and literally it’s just an insane crap show with too many effects and lights. I don’t even know what I’m shooting at. Usually shooters work up towards this insanity but this jumps right into it. Like when I quit a shooter for 2 years and came back with same account...had no clue what was happening.

### 5/5 — Intense!

*2019-10-09, version 1.1.2*

A great bullet hell shooter that is well designed providing a method to its madness! Graphics are ok, but it's the controls, weapon systems and boss fights that get it right! Soundtrack is really good as well. Definitely a worthy addition to the collection of shmups on iOS! Bring on Danmaku 4!!!
