This Game Looks Colorful.

<div class="IPBDescription">If... odd.</div> <a href='http://www16.big.or.jp/~zun/html/th09top.html' target='_blank'>Phantasmorgia of Flower View</a>

As you may have guessed from the Engrish and odd if somehow appropriate word choice, it's Japanese, and thus the site is nearly innavigable. But I found the download link, so for a direct download click <a href='http://mirror0.fuzzy2.com/zun/kaei_ver002.lzh' target='_blank'>here</a>. If you liked it as well, tell me what you thought of it. If you like rail shooters you may enjoy this, even if the game is rather strange. Credit for bringing this game to my attention goes to Dom of Megatokyo.

It seems a bit too fairy-ish, but hell I don't really care since it plays like Galaxian and I love rail shooters. Don't play it on easy though, it's waaaaaaaaaaaaay to easy. Start on medium or hard.

    Haven't played it yet, but how would people download it without <a href='http://www16.big.or.jp/~zun/html/th09ss.html' target='_blank'>pictures</a>.

    The download link points to a .lzh file - I presume this opens with something like WinRar ?

    From what I can tell it has something to do with flowers.. <s>oh and if you see an enemy avoid it.</s>

    Looking at the pictures I don't think this game has enemies.

    Actually, it plays galaxian style. So enemies come down from the top of the screen after you. AND you have to compete against an opponent A.I. on the other half of the screen playing the same game as you. Whoever runs out of lives first loses.

    So it's sort of like a two player competitive galaxian I guess. ...With fairies.

    And yeah, that opens to winrar.

    From what I can figure out, on the Char select screen it shows what the specials do on both sides of the screen at the bottom.
    Using specials also hinders opponents by adding things to dodge on their side.

    Ahh thanks. I'll pay more attention when selecting characters. I didn't see much difference at the time, but if that's the case...

    I played a game like this not too long ago, I think called Perfect Cherry Blossom, but you were a girl (like Little Red Riding Hood) running through the forest.

    Anyway, it's no Ikaruga, but it's not bad.
  • Cold_NiTeCold_NiTe Join Date: 2003-09-15 Member: 20875Members
    Yeah Ikaruga remains one of the most amazing Rail Shooters I've ever seen. Not that I'm any good at playing it. On the Gamecube or at 20 more fps on my friends computer.
