Devs just throw [parasitic bomb] on Steam to make a quick buck.
It's sad that Valve have practically no quality standards, especially not with Greenlight, since there's [parasitic bomb] like Paradigm Shift (which is also a shitty iOS game, by the way) getting into the service.

Not sure if this was mentioned earlier, but the 3DS version is getting an update to restore the cut dialogue like the PC version. It also looks like Inti Creates are listening to issue with the PC version's lack of rebindable keys so customizable keyboard configuration will be added at some point.

Some news has came out on Steam for Gunvolt today. Inti Creates has partnered up with Games Done Quick and Speedruns Live where you could win a chance for a trip to Tokyo, Japan if you're in the U.S. or Boston, Massachusetts in the U.S. if you're from Japan (but what about if you're from Europe or another country?) in a speedrunning contest by playing through the game's new Speedrun Mode. Details about entering the contest can be found in the link back there or here at the Azure Blur page at Inti Create's website. It also looks the PC version of Mighty Gunvolt is coming out this month on the 29th, though I'm hoping those that bought Azure Striker Gunvolt earlier will still be eligible for the free copy by then.

Heard they added Right Stick for skills now in the Steam version.

I caved and picked it up, it's a great game but my god are the world and characters dull. Zero and ZX had way better atmosphere and way more memorable boss fights. I'm really surprised how amazing the concept for Adepts are that they made the bosses so---"just there". Oh well It's still a blast to play even if the bosses are a little to hard to read for my liking (leading to a lot of cheap hits).

Guvolt is okay-not even close to Zero of ZX in quality of game design but still a decent game in it's own right.

Yeah most of the stuff is a more Only in the Manual sort of thing, I mean they have an audio drama starting the fire dude that explained how he used to be a gang leader and has always been a lolicon.....I am not kidding here.  Let's hope they improve the narrative for the sequel since they are working on that. 

[spoiler]Also the false final boss and Gunvolt were part of an experiment to make an Azure Striker like the real final boss, false final boss was a failure Gunvolt was a success.

Also it's implied that the other Azure Stiker killed Copen's dad.[/spoiler]

The plot is far too barebones. That's why I still don't care to get the true ending. I finished the false final boss, saw the downer of an ending, and uninstalled to make room for Kid Icarus Uprising.

The game has so much wasted potential as a story.

Funny, I think of KIU as the opposite; story is fun, gameplay isn't worth it.

I echo Sakura's sentiments on hoping Gunvolt 2 improves a lot of what the first game had. The story needs more care, and there's some gameplay changes I'd like to see. Paramount for me is doing away with synthesis. Having to grind in a game like this is just not fun.


What happens in Vegas stays on Youtube. I also stream on Twitch from time to time.

Seriously [tornado fang] the synthesis and maybe the level up mechanics but keep the skiils and armor shop.

Oh yeah. The frequency you get new skills is criminally low.

Hopefully they add more skills and more variety to the guns in the sequel.

I personally love everything about KIU. Everything.

Although, I can understand how people dislike the controls and camera. Still didn't stop me from enjoying every minute of it, since I don't suffer from hand cramps.

Kid Icarus Uprising like Sato said, I was too lazy to type the full name.

wow i feel like an idiot.

Gameplay is fuuuuun, but it's the only game that makes my hand cramp to hell and back midway through a single stage.

I actually really like the gameplay, but it's really uncomfortable gameplay.

I'm a leftie so I can't play KI:U with any sense of comfort because holding the stylus in my right hand just doesn't work.

And the sheer amount of content is absolutely ridiculous.

I think I logged about 200 hours into that game, and I still wasn't even halfway complete with all those unlockables.

I've been hearing that it's like Sin & Punishment in terms of gameplay, and I really like that game. Kid Icarus: Uprising is one of my top priorities once I get a New 3DS. Too bad I'm probably gonna have to invest on an SD card big enough for that game (as well as the other download-only games like Ace Attorney Trilogy) if I can't get it physically.

If you guys are looking for story enhancements play on English with Japanese voices mode. It has all the cut dialog (there was a LOT cut).

The game world feels so much more comprehensive and alive. The 3DS version cut out so much ti felt dry as a bone for story.

For example Gunvolts bullets are made out of his hair and he wears glasses when he goes to school.  Seriously you can find a lot of this stuff on TVTropes.
