This is genuinely an exceptional game - in no little part thanks to its story - that is marred by a bad reputation and a controversial "life" system. Other reviews went into it already, but it's rather true: you get punished for playing badly and rewarded for playing well, feeling like you're fighting an uphill battle when you mess up and lose your power-ups. Then again, the (Hungarian) voice acting, flavor, artwork, worldbuilding and story in this game is superb. The story is a little hard to follow, but here's a few tips without any spoilers. You follow two seperate points in time . The first follows the amputee Ronotra Koss being "helped" through blackmail by Myryan Magusa and an AI GARAI 74/22876 to avenge his son; the second has you follow Akyta Dryad, leader of the Enkie resistance, assisted by Durak, Enkie noblewoman and Lynthe Ytoo, former imperialist. The way time is marked is mainly what makes it confusing: - Ronotra Koss' narrative starts in "circle" (= the game's years) 1380 IN and ends in circle 1517 IN - Akyta Dryad's narrative starts in circle 102 ET and ends in circle zero ET i.e. the "IN" or "Imperial Nir" counts UP from an unknown time whereas the "ET" or "Enkie Time" counts DOWN to a prophesied moment in time. You can piece the story together with these hints yourself by going through the story mode twice (if you beat challenge mode once, you unlock the alternative narrative for the true ending) and by leafing through the Encyclopedia (which you'll unlock after beating the story once). Note that Ronotra Koss' actions predate Akyta Dryad's - though time is its own character in this story. Do yourself a favour and give this a shot, get good at it, forgive its flaws and experience that great Hungarian voice acting and storywriting. WholeHEARTEDLY recommended! This game was bashed far too unfairly!

An epic, dark sci-fi storyline encased in excellent cinematics, animations, and gameplay. Anyone who's a fan of shmups like PSX's Einhander will find this game immensely satisfying. Great bosses and battles to be had!

Having been raised on games like Raiden, R-Type, and 1942, my first impressions of this game were that it was (1) much prettier than the old, dusty 2D-sprite shmups I was used to, but also (2) a bit slower paced. Are they nerfing shmups to accommodate a broader audience now, too? Well, yes and no. Thank goodness for difficulty modes. While I certainly enjoy shmups, I'm not especially great at them. The story mode of this game was not what I would call easy, but the game is only around an hour long and I was able to get through it after about 20 attempts. The game has great environments, interesting bosses, and incredible eye candy. Your ship's health is tied to a countdown timer and this mechanic works exceedingly well. So does the limited slow-down mechanic that can be rationed out judiciously throughout each level. All of this adds up to a very fun experience. Too bad it was so short-lived. But wait! What's this "Arcade" mode all about? I get to choose my plane, my pilot, and my special ability? And there's more difficulty options here too: "Hard" and "Insane." Joy! So I booted the game up on Hard mode. Holy Jesus.

The best modern shmup I have ever played. Really over the top bosses, a very wacky Japanese style story, and amazing graphics. Do not buy if you don't like twitch bullet hell shooters.

Sine Mora is an awesome side scrolling shmup with a beautiful art style, intense, well thought out boss battles, and multiple weapons and characters to play with. The game offers full controller support along with full leaderboard integration - something that many shmups forego that is of the utmost importance. What's more fun than competing directly with the entire steam community (including your friends) to see who can get the high score? Like most good shmups it follows the design philosophy of "easy to pick up, hard to master" and in following this motif there are also boss training options along with other game modes to play through. The environments are also quite varied, so whether you're in the heart of a jungle or deep under the ocean, Sine More always has something new to throw at you. The game's unique gameplay mechanic that differentiates it from other shmups is a sort of time slowing device, allowing you to navigate through the bullet hell that becomes your daily existence while playing this awesome sidescolling shooter. Pros: Excellent Graphics Full Controller Support Full Leaderboard Support Variable Weapons/Ships Great Boss Design Cons: No English VOs/Subs only (not usually a con, but if you're reading text at the bottom of the screen you're not looking at bullets coming at you - deadly in a shooter like this) One of the best shmups on Steam. If you even have a passing interest in any type of shmup, whether twin stick or otherwise, pick this up. A-
