エスカトス ~ Eschatos - Original Hard - ALL Clear 57,632,843

[@MaybeNotARobot]

The three essential parts of shoot-em-ups: 1. Brutal difficulty 2. Weird/no story 3. BANGER SOUNDTRACK

[@bedescarlet]

Touhou does this as well obviously

[@Mr._Sherwood]

Can confirm, I've yet to play a shmup that hasn't destroyed me, confused me and caused several eargasms simultaneously.

[@oggiv]

@@Mr._Sherwood If ya want to try something that wont completely destroy you then you can always try Vertical Force. Only thing that it will destroy is your eyes. You'll see why.

[@Mr._Sherwood]

And my wallet, last I checked Virtual Boy games are somewhat expensive given their rarity

[@oggiv]

@@Mr._Sherwood Vertical Force isnt too expensive though. One of the cheaper ones probably. I got my copy for about 30 bucks

This games soundtrack is incredible.

[@robertoseverini4302]

Is the epic song

[@VivRibbon]

yeah, the music is killer!

[@blind_t2]

Though it’s a modern game, the soundtrack and sound effects make it seem like it came from an arcade game of the early to mid 90’s.

[@jju00]

I'd say from the early 2000's but yeah I get what you are saying.

[@KirbyLinkACW]

@@jju00 Yeah, I totally thought this and Mamorukun Curse were PSP games until I saw the dates.

[@meheecan123]

The sound somewhat reminded me of Sega Genesis soundchip

[@Sinistar1983]

@@meheecan123 more feels like a Yamaha YM2151 soundchip that was commonly used from the mid 80s to late 90s

[@Unk0wn_stalk3r]

....4 years it was an modern game.... Damn im old.

[@Coreagrus]

Omg! The enemies at 14:39 are arranged to look like ones in space invaders! I love this game!

[@cinder8787]

Space invaders reference

[@KeivSquirrel]

The inspirations while making this game is one of the nice aspects of it.

[@bifmun4233]

I firmly believe this is one of the greatest OSTs ever. Nothing but pure shmup ecstasy.

[@Dmirtao]

World record already?!? FFS, Jaimers, stop destroying every shmup on the planet, they weren't meant for this level of abuse. :^) Awesome run as always! I loved that final boss BGM.

[@Opebin]

That's a cute little feature. I beat this game yesterday on Easy, noticed the number of red ships flying in the ending is the number of lives you have left. Awesome gameplay, I have a long way to go if I want to get this good!

[@balthamossa2b]

I love the 3D effect, but it looks like a pain to avoid stuff in 2D. So disorienting.

[@KnakuanaRka]

Yeah, it can definitely make the perspective pretty damn confusing. Especially when you use the shield weapon to attack an enemy in the background. @_@

[@ParityS]

This music is so amazing.

[@RenGraes]

.... I've listened to the soundtrack so much it's pretty much my lullabye now... always get sleepy listening to this whole thing.

[@justvibin1087]

Only here for the kickass soundtrack.

[@どこでも応援団長ガガンボン]

これぞシューティング最高峰！！！見てて気持ち良い！！ This is the highest peak of shooting! !! !! It feels good to see! !!

[@sukasuru]

25:20 i like the fact the enemy is beating in sync to the song

[@Aventucats]

Even the song lagged too 🤭

[@catmaniamusicsoka]

[@baldaizamusic]

ペーローネスっ

[@beach_lion]

So cool, finally seeing the way to actually play this game

[@alejomakevids]

Underrated game I love these kind of games !!!

[@Aventucats]

15:36 Imagine your eyes being ambushed by flying triangles

[@robertoseverini4302]

Soundtrack is incredible

[@gabrielandy9272]

the visual of this game is amazing =D

[@cannonfodder4000]

You've got maad talent, I can't beat this game yet and I've been playing it for five hours

[@Royalleague45]

i have no idea what im seeing, am i having fun though? YES

[@RoboKayu]

This is the game that got me into touhou

[@u-ya]

スピードアップは最速以外使用しないと思ってたけどボスに速度を合わせたり弾幕かいくぐるのに速度落とす使い方をするなんてハイスコアラーの行動は常識を逸してて凄い！

[@extraful1]

The camera work on this game is probably even better than R-Type Final.

[@rainwizard]

That was a blast to watch!

[@breadboy410]

2021 and i still want to play this fcking game

[@cheems2360]

say hello to my steam wishlist

[@Chloroxite]

Anyone else notice the fact that the ship in area 06 is basically Tokyo drifting through the air in a way that is completely goofy?

[@dynamitenamco1755]

Is it wrong that when I look at the games logo on the title screen I immediately think of Xevious?

[@snappyapple6328]

Dynamite Namco You're not the only one.

[@lordmarshmal_0643]

I think that is actually the Xevious font! I've been playing Eschatos over the past few days (currently playing on Original Easy and I'm having a rough time remembering to shield lul) and _m a n_ it feels like such a good love letter to some of the old school stuff, Galaga and Xevious especially

[@arthercasillas2755]

@10:39 makes it look easy

[@Shepardus]

How are you executing that safespot in the bottom-right in Area 15 when the enemies come in a spiraling pattern around you (at about 10:09 in this video)? Every time I try to do it one of the enemies runs into me from behind.

[@JaimersSTG]

+Shepardus Just shield and press against the corner.

[@Shepardus]

Ah, it worked without a problem in Hard but didn't work when I tried it in Easy. I guess they have slightly different movement patterns between difficulties.

[@mapg519]

i now want to buy this game

[@MugiMo510]

Ah, so that song is from area 12. Didn't know this game was that new tho, the art direction feels like it's from 1996. I'll have to see where I can get this. ☺️

[@KirbyLinkACW]

I know at the very least it's on Switch.

[@MugiMo510]

@@KirbyLinkACW I have it safely nestled in my Steam library

[@ultimapower6950]

Ngl I might play this myself someday.

[@kas-u]

The nostalgia

[@TrappedBowyer9684]

You can tell this was made by the people who made mamorukun curse by listening to the music

[@BIL0471]

Genuinely bonerizing.

[@ZDNAnimators]

These soundtracks has sounds like Battle Garegga

[@Electrosa]

Does the perspective fuckery ever get troublesome?

[@JaimersSTG]

+SalThePiplup Once you know what you're doing it never gets troublesome.

[@LoppinLazy]

Jaimers91 I haven't seen any other bullet hell that handles the background/perspective tricks this way. Makes me think of a Star Fox game. I love it

[@asiagomelt8507]

Awesome. Have you given Hardest a shot?

[@clsxalghazanth3757]

Anyone have an idea on the scoring mechanics ?

[@MP-S-TG]
