KARASU MELTDOWN!

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! 

This game was originally made in three weeks for the Gunner Parade '22 Winter League game jam, winning 1st place!

[EPILEPSY WARNING: This game contains rapidly flashing color effects!]
