Pricing is a bit weird actually, since the game is just $14.99 on Steam (and 14.99)

Bought.
Can't wait to try it out during lunch on the laggy TV in the break room here at work.

It's a side-scroller I believe, so don't expect ZOE gameplay. You should still get it though.

That's usually an issue of untranslated store pages and Sony is weird about that. We have a Playism guy posting on GAF, so maybe he can tell us more about that.

Yeah, Sony has strict language restrictions in certain countries. We're looking into getting the missing regions added as soon as possible.
2D-plane only? I once saw a GAF member say it was like starfox but crazier.

I paid good money for this Dynex!

The camera is constantly shifting, so in a single level you go from vertical shmup to horizontal to Panzer Dragoon.

Goddamn this game is beautiful. Vsync and 60fps.
It's a bit easy though. Once I got home and put it on the lagless ASUS, I was able to get to the final boss without dying in arranged mode.
I recommend playing the game in original mode first. It will help you appreciate the additions to arranged. Arranged is a bit broken too. Mapping all of the attacks to their own buttons and giving you control over the lock on field removes a lot of challenge from the later levels.
Alright, we got Astebreed. Now where's Croixleur Sigma!? And for Christ sake, someone get a western pub to pick up Assault Suit Leynos.

As a borderline robot fetishist (I swear giant robots dont get me off) this is totally relevant to my interests.

Yeah, if it has mecha or ninjas, I will usually buy it.
We're working on it. Don't worry.

I have it on Steam but I'll get it day 1 as well if it's not too pricey and supports cross-buy PS4/Vita. Thanks for bringing japanese indies over

To be honest, the PS4 version of CS has enough added to it to make it worth it, even if you already played it on Steam!
nevermind
And while you're here, please know that I'm really looking forward to Mitsurugi Hikae. Any update on the release date?
Once again, thanks for all the good work.

Nothing we can talk about right now, but it IS coming.
The PS4 version has everything the PC version has plus:
- Improved models, textures, & lighting
- New cutscenes to fill in story
- A new arrange mode
- Additional control functions
- An expanded in-game glossary/encyclopedia with in-game lore, enemy/weapon information, and more in-depth info on characters.
Imo, the PC version is a fantastic version of the game, but the PS4 is the PC version + more.

Starting to understand the flow of the game. I still like Classic mode best. I like the simplicity. Only a few buttons to keep track of.
No wonder I didn't find this in the store. I don't understand why they have these restrictions at all since the store is in english anyway atleast here in Finland.
Hopefully you get it to the store soon. Really interested in this game.

Bought the game last night on PSN, absolutely amazing and just awesome to get to play another shmup type game on PS4. Really enjoyed it, finished it in one sitting and can't wait to go back and improve on my score and hit up hard mode. That final boss is certainly a rage inducing monster, wanted to punch my screen at one point
Game runs really well, controls are simple to get into especially since they are easily customized and it's just overall a great quality product, highly recommend this game.

I noticed the game is now available in my Store (Netherlands), maybe it's been added to yours too.
Thanks PLAYISM and nice job on the translation! - if that was the reason for delay. Makes me wonder how NISA gets away with some of their (ridiculous) Google-cut-and-paste translations.

Are they gonna add the PS4 modifications/bonus to the PC version in the near future?
Checked just now and it appears to be on the store now. Bought it immediately haha. Thanks for whoever is responsible for getting it to the store!

I think Sony just cares about there being any translation at all. They don't do quality checks. I'm pretty sure they don't even check if it's the right language as there are games on the German store which have Dutch and even Polish descriptions.

Edelweiss is busy working on their next game, so it's unlikely, unfortunately.
Thanks for the kind words. We really believe in what we do. If you guys ever have any issues with our games, you're welcome to contact me on Twitter, or even by PM on GAF. We do read what fans say about what we put out.

I'll be looking to pick one up this week. Don't need anything special. Just want something affordable that works and won't break easily.
Just finished a Hard run. Such a fun game to learn.
