DEVIL BLADE REBOOT Free Download (v1.2.0)

Devil Blade, a 1996 indie shmup released only in Japan, has received a full remake almost a quarter century later by the original creator, taking advantage of the latest technology. Dive into an immersive pseudo-3D experience that pushes the limits of pixel art. With a perfect fusion of background music and evolving stage design, you can experience a feeling only possible in a SHMUP! Devil Blade Reboot is presented in a seamless and cohesive package, for the first time in English! Simply “dodge, shoot, and destroy” without any extra baggage. Devil Blade Reboot strictly follows a strict design concept that pursues catharsis of shmups to the extreme. But, as they say… no pain, no gain! If you want to enhance your score, you will have to shoot down enemies in close proximity. The closer they are, the higher the score multiplier. With the Berserk System, dangerous play is the way to climb the ladder, as high risk brings high reward.

Features:

• 2D pixel art graphics with an obsessive level of detail: Rendered in the original native 320×240 resolution of the classics, but with visuals that defy the limits of pixel art! Experience immersive pseudo-3D, making use of modern techniques such as multiple parallax scrolling and zoom effects.
• Berserk System: The closer you let them get, the higher your score will climb! Dramatically increase the score… and the difficulty, by destroying enemies in close range! The difficulty level changes drastically depending on the way you play the game. From beginners who just want to clear the game, to advanced players chasing the highest score possible, Devil Blade Reboot is designed to be enjoyed by anyone interested in the genre.
• Retro and Reboot Mode: While the enhancements of Reboot are visually stunning, some may want to look back in history to see the origins of Devil Blade. We have you covered. Included is an Arrange mode of the original “Devil Blade” created in Dezaemon+ in 1996 with the Berserk system added but the original atmosphere preserved. Experience this retro recreation of a classic shmup, delivered here for the first time outside of Japan.
