    I think this game is more of an eyesight test than shmup.

    The tiny bullets of both yourself and enemies are red, but the backgrounds also have mainly reddish tones.

    Well, I am exaggerating slightly. One boss has blue bullets but surprise surprise, the backgrounds also turn blue.

    The gameplay itself is quite fun and due to the slow moving bullets, it would be quite good for beginners. It's just a shame that they couldn't make the bullets more clearly defined.

    The challenge in a shmup should be dodging bullets, not struggling to see them.

    I would give this game a 9 out of 10 if you're looking for a vertical scrolling shooter. I'd say it's not quite as good as the Raiden gamesI would give this game a 9 out of 10 if you're looking for a vertical scrolling shooter. I'd say it's not quite as good as the Raiden games or Sine Mora but it's right behind them. The artwork is amazing and the boss fights are really cool. It needs a story and some more English subtitles because the names of the bosses aren't written in English. You have two different characters to choose from, the game takes about 45 minutes to beat and you have infinite continues. The focus is on getting a high score, there is an online leaderboard and you can play couch co-op. I'm very happy I bought this game and I highly recommend Shikhondo: Soul Eater. Full Review »

    Shikhondo: Soul Eater präsentiert sich audiovisuell lecker, insbesondere der Kunststil, die janusköpfigen Bosskämpfe stechen dabei heraus.
