Fruitbat Factory is at it again bringing us another delight from Orange juice! No, not the beverage that got our YouTube channel suspended for three months. The game design group! This time it’s Xmas Shooting – Scramble!
Like its previous Bullet Hell titles it’s come out with like QP – Shooting is dangerous we are back for another round of insanity and mischief led by the chibi’s from that as far as I know to represent their development team at Orange Juice.
This game though has a plot, at the very moment you start arcade mode you are chasing down someone who has stolen the presents from Bunny Girl Santa! That devious little bastard, Who dares steal from Santa! Well besides villains like Team Rocket and other characters throughout the history of games and television.
But back on track on track now, the game controls just like its predecessors, and it’s pretty easy and straightforward to the point where anyone can pick it up and start playing it and have little to no issue understanding the controls, the configuration, and everything else.
It really feels like they just re-skinned QP-Shooting is dangerous in terms of mechanics and just made a new story. This is forgivable in this case because it’s a bullet hell game and if you are like me you just kind of expect bullet hell titles to just be pumped out over and over again. There isn’t anything wrong with it unless they “literally” just re-skinned QP – Shooting is dangerous and trust me they didn’t and they did manage to fix a few bugs as well.
Like their previous titles, the music is very delightful and spot on, as is the actual gameplay where you can challenge your friends and family and prove to them all you are the dominant gamer of the household and that your bullet hell skills should be recognized.
But what it ultimately boils down to is do you like Bullet Hells, do you like anime ladies dressed as Santa, because you know that’s a fetish and people are into that… Do you also like cheesy dialog to explain why you are firing energy waves and protecting yourself with little reindeer than look no forward! When Christmas rolls around we have found the ideal game title for you that is not only nicely made, runs smooth as silk, but also has lovely animation in terms of game design in it.
If you liked QP – Shooting is dangerous then you will definitely love this title.
