Hexapoda

Interesting game. Kinda mixed experience overall but had quite some ideas with the bug ambientation. It's probably more balanced around normal or hard. I played on "manic" the whole time and I felt like sometimes the bosses shot a barrage of undodgeable bullets, between the fast controls and the big ship hitbox. Luckily the game likes to fill you with bombs and lifes if ytou max the bomb stock so it wasn't too bad.

All in all, I'm having a pretty good time with this game. A few nitpicks: I appreciate that the bullets are all a bright pink color, making them very visible against the dark background. But the same can't be said of the enemies, who often blend in, and it's easier than it should be to crash into them in the chaos. In a game like this, it feels unfair when you lose a life because of enemy visibility. Your ship...

This is another instance of bugs and shmups being a good combination. There are multiple branching paths to take that will put you up against different enemies and bosses to keep you on your toes. This adds a fair bit of replay value. If you like shmups (especially of the bullet hell variety) and this is on sale, this is an easy recommendation.
