Tried this game as an absolute shmup beginner and fell in love <3 It has a really nice difficulty curve, lots of different modes and ship configurations to play around with and a banger soundtrack :)

Blue Revolver is one of the best games I've ever played!!! This game singlehandedly catapulted me into the shmup genre, and got me to play so many awesome games I'd have never found otherwise. It took a brutal 16 months of getting my ass beat, but I'm finally standing at 100% completion - and 22nd place on the global leaderboard. What a journey, oh my god. Aesthetically? This game has CHARACTER, especially for a shmup, and frankly you can see it on the steam page. The SFX are quite simple, but I can say the OST is AMAZING across the board - and, in the settings, you can toggle whether you want to hear the original OST, the double action OST, or even some community remixes on individual tracks as you play the game!! It's so sick!! The charm oozes out of every enemy design and background. Blue rolver also has extensive legibility settings that let you tune the visibility of the background, your own bullets/score items, you can even change the color of enemy bullets! It's an extremely accessible game for first time shmup players :D In terms of moment to moment gameplay, I have NEVER felt more compelled or had more fun in a bullet hell than with Blover. Each stage was built around the soundtrack, meaning they have immaculate music sync. Every bullet pattern thrown at you is a challenge but a FUN challenge. There are lower energy and higher energy points in the run, of course, but it never feels overbearing or too slow/empty. Speedkilling midbosses will spawn more enemies to fill the empty space for example. Each of the subweapons and characters you get to choose have so much personality and depth. The scoring system is one of my favorites in just about any score-based game. The jist is that you kill enemies to build a chain of 8 with your main shot, and "cash in" that 8-chain with your subweapon for 64x the score on whatever you kill while flourishing (using up the 8-chain). Bombs can be used defensively, offensively, AND for score, since they extend the flourish window. There is an expansive "break" system, where doing certain things like breaking apart certain boss segments will make the boss/stage harder but award a TON of points. The skill expression available to you is enormous, because while you get extra points for scoring breaks without using your subweapon or bombs, there are ALSO points in stages where you can use your subweapon to flourish at the same time that you get a break bonus for sometimes even more score!! it's ♥♥♥♥♥♥ perfect man lmao I adore this game to bits. There's room for absurdly difficult gameplay just as much as there is for calmer, new player friendly gameplay. No matter who you are, if you like bullet hells at all, this game is a TREAT.

Extremely polished and challenging shoot em up that pushes you to your limits with plenty of fun mechanics to spice up your gameplay. I really like how the boss enemies and mini bosses have these smaller breakable parts for more score. They're like hectic tiny puzzle during your run. The variety in ship types and weapons is really great and you can play in the way most suitable for your playstyle. The legibility options in here are a gold standard as you can customize the visuals saturation, brightness and color very extensively making the bullet visibility as good as you need it. The music is amazing and I often find myself syncing my movements to the blood pumping beats and it actually helps me to lock in. But most importantly the game is so much fun and every failure feels like carving a path towards victory.
