Nov 28, 2018The best non-touhou shmup released this decade. I'm a fan of shmups, therefore I'm used to playing old games. However Dariusburst refreshed the genre and they nailed it. It carries everything that's good about the old games, improves on what is possible to but without ruining it. A perfect homage to the shmup genre.

Mar 11, 2016The PC version of Darius Burst allows you to recreate the arcade experience by stretching the game across two monitors, creating an ultra-wide image. Otherwise, you have to accept the game's letter-boxed format, which squeezes the ultra-wide image to fit your display, leaving black bars on the bottom and top of the screen. The one exception to this rule is Chronicle Saviour mode, which is tailored for a standard 16:9 screen. Though four-player local coop is available, the lack of online multiplayer is a disappointment, especially given that there are some missions that can only be cleared with four players.
