New Release: DeathSmiles

Japanese shoot-em-up Deathsmiles (also available in a Lite version) was just updated for game controller support!

DeathSmiles is a fast-paced side-scrolling action game that tasks you to shoot down swarms of enemies, dodge tons of bullets, and collect power ups. It plays similarly to the excellent ports of classic shooters that have recently been released, though with a more updated aesthetic and presentation – this is NOT a port of a game from the 80s, but a brand new game in the same style.


Classic gameplay with 3D visuals and beautiful effects

Cave charges a lot for their games, but they have a niche. They make great quality, difficult, fun shooters with a classic arcade feel. Not everyone is going to spend the asking price on this game, but this game isn’t for everyone. If you’re the type of player who plays every arcade shoot-em-up you can find, and who loves japanese arcade games, this is for you. It’s a beautiful, well-executed, and fun entry into a genre that has been mostly ignored for years.
