Steam review snapshots
The weapon's Trinity mechanic was a bit confusing to use at the beginning, but it turned out ok after a while.With mid bosses and bosses that you can blow bits off to maximize score, anyone who's played shooters before will be right…gives a Ikaruga type of vibe.Quite possibly the best, or one of the best, modern takes on the SHMUP genre – Pawarumi boasts a rather unique rock-paper-scissors…Why it fits
Check it if you want action filtered by controller friendly, single-player.
