All those Shmups and you managed to miss the best one Border Down.

[–] tuckerm@supermeter.social 2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Wasn't Border Down the very last Dreamcast game? I think it might have been. (Well, the last official one, anyway. Homebrew games are still coming out.) I bet a lot of people missed it for that reason. I hadn't heard of it until a couple years ago. I hear it's good, though.

Yeah not sure if it was the last it was late in the dc lifespan and a Japan only release. I don't think a lot of copies where released either. Its very expensive if you can find it now. It's a great game visually and is hard but reasonable. The border system is is confusing though. The story isn't to bad either for a shmup.

Yeah honestly, I just couldn’t get into it. I understand why others would be super down with it, but it just wasn’t my bag.
