Even if you’re in the middle of a scorching summer, there are games that remind you of other seasons, and with a story that follows Cotton as a broomstick riding witch, PS4 Puuvillane taaskäivitamine! conjures up images of moonlit autumn nights. It’s Cotton’s sweet tooth, and love of candy wrapped WILLOW, which persuades her over seven stages to awaken the morning light from demons who’ve created eternal darkness — with a setting in this horizontal shmup that’ll be magic during Halloween.
This retro remake’s entrancing Arrange Mode’s 2D visual style is like a cross between the anime charm of Kiki kättetoimetamisteenus koletise disainiga Hotell Transilvaanias, so its kooky spookiness does for cute-’em-ups what Kid Dracula tegin armsate platvormimängijate jaoks.
An elaborate scoring system means this single player horizontal shmup has risk-and-reward gameplay as you either collect crystals to gain EXP and magic levels, or shoot through them for more powerful diffused shots — although picking up a black crystal is worth a whopping 10,000 points. There’s subtlety in defending with the fairy Silk’s support satellites, which feels like carefully positioning to block attacks with the Multiple power-ups in Gradius.
Yet, even without save states, progression in Cotton Reboot! is accessible to shmup newcomers due to approachable difficulty options, and once you’ve beaten the 35-minute main game, there’s replay value in unlocking new characters, and practicing techniques in two or five minute Time Attack modes to strive for online rankings.
Meeldiv on see, et arendaja Rocket Engine sisaldas ka 1993. aasta X68000 Jaapani arvutiporti algsest 1991. aastast. Puuvill coin-op retro- ja pikslikunsti fännidele, kes soovivad naasta klassikalise Successi mängu juurde. Lummavalt korraldatud heliriba on ka tõeliselt fantastiliste ööunenägude kogumik, mis koosneb andekatest jaapani heliloojatest ning saate avada muudetud lugude ja loo demo kuulamise menüüvalikus Visual & Sound. Isegi kui Fantaasia tsoon vabastati varem kui Cotton ja kui Paroodia is arguably better known in the cute-’em-up subgenre, Cotton Reboot! is a Success-ful retro remake to bewitch you into being sweet on the Puuvillane seeria.
