Looks similar to 90s Raiden but with a modern realistic style, very nice! Trying this right away! Judging from the video, the only thing I don't like is that our projectiles seem very very little, very "thin", so I guess you have to be very accurate when you shoot... (even after powering up) I prefer large fire "beams" like in Dodonpachi. But it does look more realistic that way, of course.
ok, so it's certainly in need of further development. some key binding options would be nice, and adding in the secondary weapon sprites is a must (or it's a bug to squash.) i don't really like the autofire aspect, but s'pose that's another modernizing thing. it does manage to be throwback enough to scratch the nostalgic itch tho.
good ol raiden. exactly what i was thinking when i stumbled into this one earlier. haven't been able to run it tho. struggled with a trojan (from another site of course) and built myself a bookshelf in the meantime. now the game insists that vc runtime 2015 isn't installed (and of course it is), so i'll need to repair something here and try it out tomorrow.
