NeverAwake Reviews

its-a good one!

Lol, this game is definitively not your average shoot em up! The overall setting is so refreshing.. you're playing a sick girl and fight her inner demons, literally! The enemydesign is super strange and has some spooky nightmarish vibes to it, I love it. Stages can be played in loops untill you reached a certain amount of points to proceed if you can't make it fast enough but the enemycount will rise with each loop you start. You'll probably ending up getting lost at times since the structures can be really chaotic and theres sometimes no clear direction path, but some deaths later you'll find your way :D The items you unlock fit into the setting and has that weird but sensefull connection to our protagonist. The weapons appear to be a bit more traditional in contrast to the rest of the game but still theres plenty of them and most of them are very different to play, in combination with earlier mentioned leveldesignaspects and a very steep diff curve you'll find yourself in an easy to get confused and hard to master shoot em up experience you won't find somewhere else. Being all different doesn't always mean it's all brillant and innovative, but this game walks a thin line between awkward and beautiful with its narrative, that crazy enemy & bossdesign and manages to keep you interested and demanded leaving you with a huge question mark on your face here and there. Actually I have really nothing much to complainn about except some levelconcepts/ corners and some boss attack phases but you can coat a lot with items, weapons and the dodge. I recommend it to all shmup fans hungry for something different 07/10
