Genetos by Tetsuya Koyama
Release date: December 24, 2009
Developer: Tetsuya Koyama
Version: v1.00
Genre: 2D > Action > Shoot 'em Up
Content: Mild Violence




A shoot 'em up with an evolution theme. In Genetos, you play through the very history of the shoot 'em up genre. You start off with the one of the games that started it all, Space Invaders, and as you play, the game and your ship evolves into later generations of the genre. Next you'll evolve into more 80's style games such as Xevious and Super Star Force, then into arcade-style shooters like RayStorm. Then finally, you evolve into the very games that (sorta) makes up the whole of the genre today, Bullet Hell games such as the Touhou Project, Cho Ren Sha 68k, Ikaruga and more.

The game's visual style is definitely reminiscent to games like REZ and Every Extend, its audio fits with each generations of shooters and its evolutionary theme. Plus your ship can gain different types of weapons through experimenting different ways of playing, such as evolving your bombs to that affects a wide radius to cross-like explosions. Its a short game, but its has ton of replay value. Plus there's also Internet Rankings and a replay feature in this game. Best of all, its free and it has English support.

Download Genetos

Major thanks goes to The Observer at DoujinStyle for letting me find out about this game.

I highly resent the idea of bullet hell games being the ultimate in shmups.

I highly resent the idea of bullet hell games being the ultimate in shmups.

If my assumption is wrong, then I'm sorry. Normally, shoot 'em ups I play at this day and age are bullet hell games (both commercial and doujins), but not all bullet hell games are outright ridiculously hard. You got this game that actually starts you off with 15 lives instead of 3 in most bullet hell shooters, or in rare cases 1 life (i.e. Touhou, Castle of Shikigami, Mushihime-sama, Sin and Punishment: Star Successor, and cloudphobia to name a few). Some bullet hell games are actually forgiving to players in games like Siter Skain's Kamui (3 lives, 4 HP per life although the cap is actually 8, and infinite continues), Edelweiss' Ether Vapor (starting with only 2 shield levels / HP and 3 continues but players can gain more as they play the game), x.x's Blue Wish Resurrection Plus (A Cave-ques shooter with player friendly options ranging from an "Auto-Guard" setting that saves the play if they're hit by sacrificing a bomb and a slow-down setting if bullet storms gets too intense to avoid), and Sin and Punishment: Star Successor (which may as well be the Wii's Ikaruga, but has frequent checkpoints and does offer infinite continues unlike the original N64 game where's there's a finite amount of continues).

Adding two more games to the list:
Banana Nababa is a game with nes graphics that consist of only boss fights. You control a little critter that can throw either axes or spears. Pretty hard and entertaining.
And then there is Warning Forever, also a boss-fight only game. In this case is a shooter game where you fight a boss that each time it gets defeated "evolves" according to the way you defeat him.

0v0 Gremlins 2 music~ <3

I played them here at work with the keyboard. I love these type of games~ >u<
Voodoo Mask was simple with the Axe on the first two forms and the spear on the last one. I will fight more bosses later nya. ^^
On Warning Forever, I got to Stage 10, but I will keep playing it. Missiles and lasers kinda catches you off-guard sometimes. o3o;

Give Up, Robot!

I beat 50 levels~ And you will LOVE this nostalgic colorful chiptunetastic game as much as I did!

And...

Depict1 (by the Tower of Heaven team)

Do NOT play this game!
(Actually, you SHOULD play it!)

[spoiler=How does this game work you ask?]Do the complete opposite of what it tells you![/spoiler]

[spoiler=And the endings...]1. Press Esc key on "The End".
2. Jump into the exit beam you see in "Deception".
3. Stand next to that exit beam in "Deception", but don't enter it. Wait a bit and it will disappear, and you will be able to go further in the room. What happens here is up to you, since it's better you find out yourself. ^^[/spoiler]

I stopped at this point, the delay I was getting was really annoying.

[spoiler]At the end when you see your evil side, run towards the middle and throw the other spike you picked up at him, it'll stop him right over the pit and he will fall in while you remain alive, the purgatory cracks and you are able to escape.[/spoiler]

Here's how I fared in Give Up, Robot!!:





Level 50 was kind of a b*tch, but this game is gold.

Well, I'll just leave this link to a download of Alltynex Second's demo if anyone's interested. [link]

Jeez I wasn't competing with anybody with the game. I just wanted to show how bad I am at this game. >_> Besides, I bet Vixy has done WAY better than both of us...

No harm or offense to anyone with the following phrase.

Really? You got through all 50 of the stages, while I wasn't even able to reach Stage 20. So therefore I'm a far worse player at this game than you or Vixy (if she ever played it) and got past me.

I wasn't attempting to start any competition of sorts with you, or anyone else. I was just saying how I couldn't get past one of the later levels in the second area of the game (stages 11-20).

Since Vixy brought up Tower of Heaven, I'd like to feature here at RockmanPM.

Tower of Heaven / Tengoku no Tou



Screenshots are from the Flash version at Newgrounds

Release date: 2010
Developer: Askiisoft
Version: v1.0 (PC) / v1.04 (Newgrounds Flash version)
Genre: 2D > Action > Platforming > Puzzling
Content: Mild Violence

An indie platforming and puzzle game with nostalgic Game Boy-styled 8-bit visuals and beautiful music (you can buy it here at Flashygoodness' site for less than $1). You play as an unnamed wanderer who sets out to undergo the trails of tower that reaches towards the heavens. Somewhat of a difficult game and its short, but the game's music is definitely memorable. There's also secrets to be found and there's extra modes (and more in the Flash version). The PC version is freeware, but there's much more in the Flash version at Newgrounds and it plays much smoothly, too.
