4.5/5 Criminally Underrated, Visually Stunning, and An Absolute Blast DON'T START THE GAME ON HARD OR EVEN NORMAL. START ON EASY AND GET SUCKED IN. Who should try it: Fans of Resogun, Nex Machina, and Action Rogue-Lites plus Casual Shmuppers, Twin-Stick Shooter lovers, and People tired of Pixel Art Who should avoid it: Shmup-Purists, People whose ego won't let them start any game on Easy, People who hate a bit of Spectacle, People overwhelmed by FX Disclaimer: I own the game on Xbox and two different PC marketplaces, finished it on Easy and working on Normal. Hard will probably remain out of my reach. I do not count myself as a shmup lover and have no idea what is considered "good" or "standard" or "mandatory" for the genre - nor do I care. TECH ADVICE: Cygni does NOT have dedicated Upscaling or Frame Generation. You'll have to do take care of that yourself, especially on older hardware. It also runs in Exclusive Fullscreen, so, for example for "Lossless Scaling", you'll have to edit the launch options in Steam - Properties - General with something like "-windowed" for it to work TLDR: PROS: Fun, visually stunning, fast-paced. Ideal for an hour of no-brain thrills. A game you can start on Easy and not feel bad. CONS: Some questionable design decisions. Some rather important mechanics are not explained clearly enough. Intended Game progression (Start on Easy, unlock and upgrade, then work your way up) not clear, which can lead to frustration of unsuspecting casuals ;) REVIEW WALL O' TEXT I work a lot, so to unwind, I like to play fast paced games that allow me to turn most of my brain off and just react. Cygni does that - and does it with style: Sharp controls, amazing graphics, satisfying combat, and fun boss fights, plus some nice, albeit not very well explained mechanics and "build options". It's one of those games that I keep coming back to. But I almost didn't get to enjoy it, because I started the game on HARD and did not make it past the first level. Don't do that. Easy is rough enough, Normal is very rough even after upgrading your ship, and Hard is forever out of my reach, I think. My recommendation: Start on Easy, get used to the gameplay and the controls, unlock all upgrades and upgrade your ship. Then move on to Normal - if you want to. If not, don't worry about it, because even on Easy it's immense, exhilarating fun. I understand that it may not be a "purist Shmup", whatever that might mean, and that the inclusion of air-to-ground combat and some other post 1985-mechanics might be considered anethema by the purist crowd. I can only judge the game by the gameplay and fun it delivers, and boy, does it ever. The systems, once you understand them and play around with them a bit, all support each other to create a very complete package that is far more than the sum of its parts. Cygni is how Space Invaders played out in my mind - by way of James Cameron (and maybe a bit of Jerry Bruckheimer and Michael Bay). Is it perfect? No. A lot of the mechanics are not very well explained and the loadout/build-menu is difficult to parse and navigate at first, especially with a controller. And the decision to tie your shooting patterns to your energy distribution - you can shunt energy back and forth between shields and weapons - is questionable at best, particularly since it's not really made clear what that actually means for you (or it wasn't clear to me). Worse, you don't really see your current distribution unless you change it. There's also a bit of a mood dissonance. The game is not a particularly "happy" game, story wise: Alien Invasion, Apocalypse, Cats and Dogs living together, Mass Hysteria! Yet following the peppy tune of the opening cinematic complete with a cheeky gratuitous shot of the very nice butt of a very cute western anime-style female pilot you'd be forgiven for thinking otherwise - and getting a bit of whiplash once it turns into this sci-fi action spectacle with symphonic score. The devs are, luckily, aware of a lot of this. HOWEVER: While a Cygni 2.0 patch is pretty much ready, as far as I understand it, publisher KONAMI never gave the green light to deploy it. Yes, publishers have such power. I don't know what exactly happened or what's going on, so I won't speculate, but personally I think: A) If you want to complain about bugs or a lack of post-launch improvements, complain to Konami. It's their call. B) Reading the plans they have (implemented) for said patch, it's an utter crime that Konami has abandoned this game. I could say much more, but talking about the game makes me want to play it. If any of this sounds like fun to you, give this one a try - an honest try, starting from Easy - and I think you won't be disappointed.

The shmup for people who hate shumps. This game is wonderful to play as a casual bullet hell fan. I set it to easy and sat back and took in the incredible graphics and fast gameplay. Bought it on sale for about $9. Was a no brainer.

Graphics are absolutely stunning. Beautiful to play. Gameplay is straight forward to learn but extremely difficult to master, with an easy mode that is very doable, progressing to incredibly difficult in medium and hard modes. Short game with only 7 levels right now, plus arcade mode. Story is basic but good. Looking forward to some much needed expansions.

The good: Thanks to the Dev team there is finally a modern shmup that understands that graphics are a big part of the assignment. The music sounds like it's from a movie and the visuals are truly next gen. The enemies remind me of the mechs from the Matrix movies. The Bad: Pace of most of the levels is literally a crawl. I beat the game with the default ship with no upgrades because I didn't understand the upgrade system. Also, it doesn't seem like you get much currency for beating levels. I beat it on ez and I still don't really understand the game's mechanics but that may very well be a me a problem. Defintely more complex than most shmups. Overall if you're looking for a modern shmup with beautiful gfx this is the future
