About this episode
In this episode, the hosts discuss the mechanics and community reception of the game Star Hunter DX.
In episode 083, MetalFRO and Addicted explore a new game that helps continue the proliferation of danmaku into the horizontal scrolling shooter space. Star Hunter DX combines that with a bullet canceling system that is vital to both scoring and survival, so there's plenty to discuss about the game's mechanics and approach. What did we like and dislike about the game? What did the community think of this one? We cover all that and more!
