Bullet Hell Monday Reviews

I went in expecting this to just be another shooter until…
🔷The controls I noticed was extremely smooth, the visuals really popped out with color, and the difficulty was mostly just right. 🔷The music creates the feeling of being a Hi-Speed shooter and dodging Thousands of bullets. It fits the gameplay perfectly as the gameplay has bullets being shot everywhere.
🔷There are 3 modes. CHAPTER is complexing. It make you do missions within acts to achieve mission points and move on. CHALLENGE sets all obstacles of each chapter into one big act and has 4 difficulty levels. EXTRA has endless modes. They will set you up against enemies and bosses in a random order with rising difficulty.
🔷As the game requires skill it has many features to make up for mistake. Bombs are the ships special ability, auto-bomb helps preventing you from losing ships incase of misfortunes, and automatic item absorption helps collect items without needing the risk to moving to it, and more. I seems to have very few issues to where it really doesn’t matter as it was handled better than any other ship shooter and that makes this the best one out there…

Just skip the dev’s first game; it was mediocre. This is a massive improvement and as others have pointed out, is comparable to the old CAVE shooters (except in graphics unless you really like geometric shapes). Most of the ship types are gated by payment (can be rented using earned points) but the unlockable ones are pretty good. Tbh the p2w ships really take the fun out of the game, though some have cool mechanics like the blade one. If you are a bullet hell fan, just stick to the base ships and challenge yourself. The levels are designed around them anyway and the bullet type swap mechanic allows for variety in play during a stage. Also, if you don’t want to grind the points to upgrade the base ships, the dev offers a one time payment to do just that, which might diminish enjoyment for some but is a welcome option for those who want to skip ahead to the really hard stuff. All things considered, I really like that the dev thought hard about how to monetize so that people can get the experience they want.

Can’t wait for the next, keep at it!

This dev is talented. .Decluster was mediocre at best, and you wouldn't expect their next game to be a huge step up. This game, however, is excellent. It takes 99% of the flaws with the previous game, fixes them, and then adds a ton of awesome features. There are 5 chapters with 10 short levels each, but they are a blast to play through. You also get a 'challenge mode' which plays more like a traditional shmup. And now there's endless mode as well if there wasn't already enough content. This mode is also a ton of fun to play, but it could do with some kind of rank management (a way to manage the difficulty). All of this for a grand total of zero dollars/euros/gold coins/etc. There are dlc ships you can get by paying, but the game doesn't try to force you to buy them and the three default ships are more than capable. If you don't have this game, you're missing out on the very best App Store shooting game.

As a long time fan of shmups/bullet hell games I have to say that not only is this the best mobile shmup ever released, but may be the best and most entertaining mobile game ever released, PERIOD! I commend the developer for not only making a game with amazing controls and graphics for the genre (but with an interesting design twist), but for also making the price points and AP system fair for the player!! Finally a game that actually rewards good skill with a reasonable amount of reward for leveling up items. I’ve been so happy with the system that I gladly paid the money to release the locked ships just because I wanted to reward the developer. Amazing game play and boss designs, and difficulty that is just hard enough to drive you crazy on the hardest levels, usually when trying to complete the hardest tasks. Many developers could learn from you! Look forward to what’s next and will gladly play it. Cheers!

Fans of the vert shooter/bullet hell/bullet curtain/manic shooter rejoice! This game offers up the goods, but remains accessible to less experienced players. The action is intense but grows with you, adding challenge as you master early levels and upgrade your ship. Probably most indebted to the Cave shooters of yore, expect dizzying waves of enemies to attack and psychedelic torrents of projectiles to avoid. The sort of simplified graphics grew on me, I’m used to the sci-fi realism of shooters from the consoles of the 80’s and 90’s but that aside, the action here more than delivers. I’m hard pressed to spend money on any game app but I will likely fork over the few bucks it will cost to unlock the special ships offered here. Most of the upgrades can be unlocked through gameplay though so you don’t have to spend a dime if you don’t want to, but supporting this kind of creative effort is a worthy expenditure. Bravo!

This is a bullet hell shoot-em-up game. It’s pretty fun, graphics are nice, and it plays wonderfully. You play through Chapters (which are like Worlds), and stages, each getting progressively harder. There is also a challenge mode. You can upgrade your ship with bombs, more lasers, fire rate, etc., and there even multiple types of ships that have their own attributes. I mostly enjoy the music - sure, it might be basically the same track, just a different arrangement for each Chapter, but it’s never repetitive. I’ve found myself whistling it when I’m not playing it.
Overall, I highly recommend this game. Play if you enjoy a challenging shoot-em-up, and great music.

This game is t super in depth other than the very large number of upgrades and enemy types it a very classic game that can be rage Inducing sometimes but I honestly can find a better free bullet hell game on mobile and it’s better that 9 of the 11 payed bullet hell games and I can’t believe how well they made it from the endless modes to the ridiculous leaderboard and challenges and the missions in quest that keep you trying again and again as to awaken your inner completinist or how ever you spell it but if you like hard games you should very well play this one 10/10 would reset and play again.

I have gotten into bullet hells recently and this game is a great to start with! But the last 5 levels are almost unbeatable. Sure you obviously have to have skill in order to beat the last few levels, but sometimes you can’t deal enough damage to beat some enemies or obstacles. For example, in level 508, there are these boxes that you need to destroy before they go down the screen and I can’t destroy them in time despite the fact I have used all the weapons and still can beat the level on normal. I looked it up online and no one has been able that level on normal. Other than that, the game is satisfying and the music is awesome.

Incredibly good bullet hell shooter, and honestly far and away the best game I've played for iOS. Controls work as well as could be asked for from a touchscreen game, graphics/design is very pretty, and the difficulty ramp is well done (extensive ship + weapon customization also allows for minute personalization of the difficulty level). Bullet + enemy design is very clear and scans well even points with super high bullet + enemy density.

Also very nice is the minimal amount of ads and p2p content; watching ads for larger bonuses is entirely optional and doesn't interfere with the gameplay experience at all.

Great job y'all.

Now this game is pretty darn good. I haven’t seen games as fun and challenging as this in a while. I will skip over all the stuff about the bosses and gameplay (as others have already left their detailed reviews on that.) I just want to let you know that the people who give this game 1 star are the ones who don’t “get” bullet hell games because they may be too fast paced, too much on-screen, or other stuff like that. So, hey, if you’re one who doesn’t like BH games, don’t leave a bad review that may make someone who IS into them miss out on a great game.

When I first got into Bullet Hell, I decided to check out BulletHellMonday Store for a Bullet Hell Shooter, and I found this. Soon after, I was playing it, and the super smooth controls had me expecting every Bullet Hell shooter to have controls this smooth, and I found myself wondering how the heck you could dodge such a storm of danmaku without such precise controls.

Also, I checked the Settings in-game, and I found that I have sunk 150 hours (and counting) into this game, and it sure was worth it!

Super fun, amazing game play and great difficulty. Simple graphics but somehow stunning. My favorite part is it literally says in the game “you can unlock everything for 3.99 but if you enjoy playing chapters and upgrading ships then don’t buy it because you can do it for free”. Wonderful change from the money hungry scheme of most mobile games. I gladly spent a few dollars to unlock ships just to support the dev.

I don’t normally find myself playing games on my phone, but this one is an exception. I’ve been looking for a good shmup ever since DoDonPachi got removed, and this one is great. My only complaint is that this game literally only has two or three songs throughout. Each chapter plays the same song over and over again and it gets very annoying. The controls are responsive for the most part. I would still definitely recommend it.

It's completely free and the ads are notnforced upon you. You have the option of watching them for free upgrade points and that's what they are, optional. There are upgrades that cost money but there is also an unlock all option for only $4. Way cheaper than buying everything separately. No problems with the game and it runs real smooth.

Lots to like here. Controls are simple & responsive. Difficulty can be dialed in from newbie to pro. Different ships, modes, and upgrades lend lots of depth. Monetization is well implemented: You can watch occasional ads to speed up upgrades, but it’s not a must have. Most of the ships cost real dollars, but they’re also not mandatory. They do offer up new challenges and replay value though.

This game is fantastic. All of the levels are extremely well designed and the mechanics are fantastic. Everyone should try this game at least once. The only downside is that you can’t unlock all of the different types of ships for free, but that doesn’t stop this game from being something anyone can pick up and enjoy.

I forgot to sleep so I’m over 24 hours without sleep and I decided to play some to see how bad I would be when I’m tired… I’m too tired to know what I did different but I somehow increased my high score in one of the challenges by 5mil and made it to #51 on the global leaderboard
Fun game and very easy when using sleep deprivation strats

Your visual art is amazing. It creates a lot of atmosphere. But the rectangular beams seem out of place. I'd change it into a more "lasery" style.

I'd like to know how long will it take to finish a level. Also the ingame interface is very cluttered. I seriously believe that anything in it is irrelevant, because it has no focus. You are creative, I'm sure you can figure a better and "less barebones" way of building your ingame ui.

Other than that, best game I've played in a while.

Thanks specially for not having bad ads implementations. I miss the times when interstitials wherent so common.

Ps: if you had interstitial ads, I'd have deleted it though. :D

I Have Been Playing This Game For About 2 To 3 Days And From What I Could See The Game Is Amazing With Creative Enemy Placements To Creative Bosses And Weapons And The Bombs Are Amazing Each One Is Different For Every Weapon And It Balances Out The Other Stats

So This Game Is One Of The Few I Love Because It Isn’t 90% Chaos And 10% Strategy
It’s 50% Chaos And 50% Strategy

While a few places aren't coordinated well, the game gives lots of chance for progression. Even if your stuck you can earn a few completion points just by watching an ad.

If it had more music to alternate inside of the levels to change things up it would be nice.

Or even some experimental levels to test different mechanics would be interesting.
