Unable to start game. Crashes after 'hello games.' My computer exceeds the requirements of the Steam page. This is the first game I purchased since February 2016...regretting my decision. Hopefully the devs can patch up their mistakes, and if they don't, I'll have to grab a refund. Do NOT purchase this game until it gets another patch. THE NEWEST UPDATE DID NOT FIX IT. ABSOLUTELY DO NOT BUY.

Level 1: Dodge enemies.
Level 2: Dodge bullets and shield.
Level 3: Wait, they have tracking missiles?
Level 4: God spare me.
Level 5: Holy bullet hell.

I wrote a much lengthier review on my site ( REMINISC3[www.reminisc3.com] ), but I wanted to post here as well. This game has perfect pacing, and as someone who rarely plays bullet hell games, I'm now interested in the genre as a whole. While it has a few hitches (I ran into a weird menu bug myself...), none of the glitches or lag issues occur during gameplay. Gameplay is blissful and it feels the same as playing Audiosurf or Crypt of the Necromancer. Sure, you die a bit. Okay, you die a lot. But it's incredibly fun.

The developer has already posted a patch, and new content is already on its way. Although it has a small amount of levels, the pacing curve makes the game feel complete. There are plenty of games on Steam that offer just an hour of playtime for this price point. This is not one of them. It took me three hours to beat level two. I've unlocked all the levels with my points, though, and I can at least tell that it just gets crazier from there. I'd like to see someone who's beaten the game post how long it took.

Anyways, I'm rambling. This is a game I would recommend to players who have a positive outlook on life and love seeing their score go higher and higher. Shooter fans and bullet hell fans...this is a required purchase for you.
