Death Crimson OX - ALL Clear
9Played on Flycast with a mouse.
This game is pure kusoge, a sequel to the laughably bad "Death Crimson" on the Sega Saturn, is yet another lightgun game by these absolute lads.
The game itself has cool ideas, accuracy bonuses causing stacking hit points, EXP system where hitting enemies gives EXP, missing takes it away, and when you fill the bar you get a health up. Secret shootable spots for a machine gun drop that actually doesnt work, extra health or a rainbow screen filling bomb. There are also these intermission bits where killing every little enemy gives a perfect bonus. I dont know if this does anything.
There are also these statues in Stage 2 and Stage 3 that can be farmed for a lot of EXP, basically a free health item.
Thats where the positives end.
For one, the game is pretty ugly but uses a lot of reflective surfaces made possible by the NAOMI's hardware, the hitboxes on "weak points" are seriously fucked up; which is a problem cause usually hitting these weakpoints is how you actually damage the bosses or stop them from hitting you.
The stage 3 boss' 2nd phase is also complete bullshit I dont care what anyone says it takes a lot of hits to actually deal damage and shes flying all over the place moaning like a JAV actor fuck off
Stage 4 is extremely easy, easier than stage 1 even.
Stage 5 boss is a pain in the ass, the orbs can just be near undamageable when theyre about to fire at you, which makes you take damage. The rockets the boss fires are also jank hitboxes as expected.
Stage 6 starts with this lip dude, a midboss with 4(!) weak spots that are randomly chosen. If you fail to hit these weakspots, you will take damage. if the weakspot is on the elbows good fucking luck. If the weakspot is the tummy you can stunlock him if you're mashing fast enough and reload very fast, which is a pain to do on a mouse btw.
Stage 6 boss is also quite easy you just aim upwards and it dies.
Silly game
