KARASU MELTDOWN puts you into the elephant's foot of hell raven Utsuho Reiuji, who thought it'd be a fun idea to smash up the Palace of Earth Spirits!

But Satori's having none of it and sending all of her pets to stop her!

Shoot, dodge, bomb, and RAISE BULLET HELL in this frenetic caravan shoot 'em up!

Oh this absolutely rules, great work. Bombing and racking up the big multipliers feels awesome.

Number 412! baby

My name is ingame is Ivy, and I keep going to different devices, itś a shame that the score doesnt carry over.

Is ANY reason not to HOLD fire button all the time? I don't understand, why this button exists and not auto-fire.

there are no way to know the keys that i have to press via the tutorial, could that be added?

cant put my name, i press enter and it doesnt do anything.

Does it let you type when highlighting the box then pressing the shot key? [Z on keyboard / A on gamepad by default]

i press Z then press ENTER and it doesnt work :( but it does let me type my name.
