"Deathsmiles is Cave’s horizontally scrolling shoot-em up where you battle forces of evil as an angel, or better yet, a goth loli with a help from your familiar. It delivers a more friendly difficulty, while still retaining the original Cave formula. Not to mention its brilliant design and polish are all you might expect from a shmup of high caliber." - Rice Digital
"The Germany-based video game publisher Strictly Limited Games and the Japan-based game developer/publisher City Connection, are today very happy and excited to announce that Cave's classic arcade shmup "Deathsmiles I- II" is getting a Limited and Collector’s Edition to the PS4 and Nintendo Switch via the Strictly Limited Games Shop." - Jonas Ek, TGG.
I don't care for the series but as a collector of Limited Edition sets, I love that arrangement.
Shooting hordes of enemy forces while weaving through clouds of projectiles is as fun as it's always been. Very few consoles have a library of shmups as impressive as Xbox 360's so let's take a look at the 10 best shooters for Microsoft's sophomore console.
COG writes - A few may be turned off by its art style but Deathsmiles is every bullet hell fan's dream of a game.
