Quite nice! if you just want to dodge a lot of bullets, this is definitely the game to play. Requires a lot of concentration. The wepaonry and enemies are, um, lacking depth, seeing as they're randomly generated fractals. ;) But, the dodging is fun, and the bullet patterns are tricky. (BTW, I got about 1.3 Million points in Stage 1A. How about you guys?)
I'd personally recommend you check out Barrage Tribe. I think it's freeware. It's got nice weaponry, good enemies, a cool mix of 2D and 3D graphics, and some killer MIDI tunes that match the action very well. You even have to dodge moving parts of the environment. :)

I may have gotten a higher score. I don't know because the score is sideways for some damn reason. ;)

1,955,520 on level 1A, first try. Conveniently, it stores your high scores on the stage select :D

My second run through Stage 1A, I got 2.18 Million points. I didn't use any bombs, and only got hit once. :)
Strats getting interesting around the 5th set of lvls.
And insane around the 7th set!!
Nice idea picking the best things from the best shooters.
Slow movement while using laser ala Donpachi.
Absorb the apropriate colored bullets in Ikaruga mode, reflect shield in GigaWing mode.
And bullet grazing in PSY?? mode, wich i cant tell what it is from,unless it's from Radiant Silvergun (bonus score for grazing bullets/walls)
