Aerial battle for Black Haven
Why is this so awfully designed? Maybe I'm just used to normal design for bullet hells, but its just terribly designed overall.
-Poor movement space
-No iframes after getting hit, which in above reason can get you 2-3 damage from multiple bullet enemies
-The "bomb" is awful and not worth
- Shield is 2stronk
-stage 4 sucks
-your hitbox is 2phat
- you only get to fire in a straight line, which while not terrible, can be terrible in a lot of situations.
List goes on.
Main thing that is bad is just the no iframes after getting hit. And your hitbox.

[quote=bleachedguy]@calabri More like cringing at how bad it is after playing so many other bullet hell games lol. They did basically everything wrong. I'd rather play flash game ones than that.[/quote]
Still though, give them some credit. They did come up with unique, for Maplestory, content. And I appreciate that

Sounds like someone is getting frustrated.
The i-frames aren't a problem for me. The bigger problem is the hitbox and ping (Aussie lag ftw). Hitbox is absolutely massive for both the bullets and your ship. Also, your movement speed is really slow.
@nanabanana: When I say i-frame I mean the lack of invincibility frames after taking a hit, so when the bullets are bunched together, you take multiple hits.

Yea no. I've played impeccable nights, and when I am not taking one of my rahter long breaks from the game I can complete most of the game on hard. Yet I can barely get to stage 4 on the black heaven bullet hell stage. It is poorly designed. You have an extrmely large hitbox, and no iframes. Add on the fact that bullets are not "absorbed" when they hit you and you can actually be damaged more than once by the same bullet iirc. The hitbox needs to be shrunk to match other bullet hell games and the character needs more mobility in regards to how absurbdly large he is
[quote=bleachedguy]@nanabanana Eh, I'd say my reaction skills are fine after playing Touhou, Dodonpachi, and various bullet hells lol. The no i-frames really is the main issue with it I see. The rest are just inconveniences to go with the no i-frames.[/quote]
When you say i-frame do you mean HTML embedding or the video format?...

@antisora99 I know you can skip it, but it's kind of dumb that they made it so awfully they knew people would have to skip it.
You can skip it if you die too much
