Oh no! The world is in trouble! Crazy... alien... things are flying through the air, minding their own business! It's up to you to shoot them dead!... Why does this sound like the alien's aren't the bad guys?... Oh well, let's fly and shoot!
You play the main character. A generic magical school girl transformed into a super hero of fantasy... a la short shirt and magical wand. You fly, side scroller style through the air. you can not move forward or back. Using your right hand to shoot by tapping the screen, and your left hand to move upward or downward by tapping the position. There are 3 sections. Top, bottom and middle. The aliens will fly toward you from the right at various speeds, getting faster as you progress the levels. Some take one shoot to defeat, some tap more. Do not allow them to bump you or pass you! if you do, it's game over.
At the end of each level you will receive a score. There are 10 stages to clear. I have not managed to complete all the stages yet. Things get really fast when you get to the higher levels, and I just don't have the skills to kill them all.
When you get a game over screen you get a cute CG. You can access any CGs you've gotten through the CG gallery menu. Collect them all! There are 8 available. I've gotten to stage 7 or 8 and only obtained 4 images. I suppose the last ones are obtained in the last stage.
There is a store where you can purchase other modes and features for the game. You can also buy the original character concept art.
I think it's a cute application. Simple and straight forward without any distracting bells and whistles. Though I would like it to be more reminiscent of old school side scrollers in the sense of having items you can pick up and use. But then I suppose that may somehow make the story more confusing... But then they don't actually provide a story... So it's confusing to begin with.
I like the application. it's fun and cute. It can help you pass the time should you find yourself bored or waiting. It's worth the download and totally free. I'm not sure about the pay options in the store. i have not felt inclined to purchase them, myself.
If I were to make one suggestion, a story or story mode would be wonderful. Why is she fighting these creatures? Where are they from? Why are they here? Why are they a threat? They don't even attack... they just fly forward. Also, what is she defending? the entire planet or just that carnival stand we see in the game over screen? It would be nice to know.
