Read full description

CrapShoot is a side-scrolling bullet-hell shooting game. This is a compact shooter with a total of 3 stages and simple controls using only Slow and Bomb. Collect power-up items to strengthen your shots, but getting hit will reduce your power. Lose all your power and it’s game over. Clear the game again and again to aim for the highest score! Includes a full online ranking system. A little witch rides her broom on the way to the convenience store—only to be blocked by piles of slime and vicious wild creatures along the road! This “crappy shooter” that was (maybe) popular back in the feature phone era returns with a bit more power and a fresh new look to attack players once again. Featuring pixel-perfect graphics and nostalgic raster scrolling, it’s packed with retro vibes.

Verdict

The call
