“History is bound to repeat itself”
And it seems the gaming trend is heading back to the 2D platform….ahhh the good ‘ol days.
i think name should be Söldner.X.Himmelsstürmer with ö and ü
(Söldner = mercenary, Himmelsstürmer = “sky rusher” or romantic idealist)
Torrent please

Do not download
Cam audio and the Game titles are in Russian.
Hey Retro, are you referring to #5 download link or just the torrent?
i thought this game has multiple language selector.
Looks so good!! Rapidshare links plz!
Downloading now….
torrent from Mininova
Wow, this really sucks ass…
It won’t run in ANY other refreshrate than 60Hz (thus forcing anything else will make the game stop running/not start)
And there is no key configuration…
And you shoot with ctrl and control the ship with the arrows, wich makes you unable to go left and right while shooting… -_-
I ask men to tease my nipples…
And
Is this better than Halo 3?
i think we finally found our haIo 3 and crysis killer.
is this in english?
@14
No it’s a cam you noob!

Dont you have more than 1 finger??
Im surprised that there aint more fire buttons!!
Damn been waiting for this one, thanks guys!
THAT size ^^
R-Type used to be on a 1.44 DISK ^^
will give it a try anyway ^^
If your unable to map the keys in game(I would assume you could even if by the cfg file)if you happen to have a gamepad/controller around use it with a program called joy2key and problem solved.
looks like a load of balls tbh.
i had my fill of 2d shootem ups back when i had my atari 2600.
A lot better than Halo3/Crysis
“Trust me i know what im doing”
I prefer “Music Vid” more than “MViD” :O
This looks fun and small size.
Rapidshare, maybe ?
looks too complicated for me lol
Haha, this looks so nice.. Oldschool style games ftw!
@28 Mr. X,
I had the same reaction when I read the minimum requirements (although in my case, I have 1.8Ghz). The Amiga used to run games like this (admittedly with less colors and a smaller resolution) on a 7Mhz CPU!
The one thing that truly surprised me though are that the minimum and recommended OS versions are exactly the same. Usually, if 98 is supported at all, XP and above are recommended. Also, DirectX 8.1 is both the minimum and the recommended version.

the subtitles are off, nuked.
The game runs smoothly even in my PC, a celeron 2800GHz with geforce 5400 card.
It’s really nice..
Jets ‘n’ Guns is superior.
Jets ‘n’ Guns is []D[][]v[][]D agreed!
hi, wow this looks amazing..
ive unpacked it all but cant install it .. mounted in magicISO and also DeamontoolsPro, any advice welcome , thx all
Oh yeah, almost forgot…
@46
You don’t install… You run from the CD
Autorun should ake care of this, or else just browse the CD.
@44&45
Was just gonna ask that
My sisters blabbering on about this st.trinians movie, any chance there’s a release out there so I can shut her up.
This beatiful game is so wrecked by its absolutely idiotic system of power-ups that it makes me cry.
wow I played this game like 100 years…Never knew the name of the game now that curse is over…finally I found this game thank you alien…
one of the best arcade game on earth..
interesting……. magashares links please. thanks in advance
the graphics remind me of a game called solaris 104.it’s good fun, maybe not stellar, but sure is entertaining.the weapon selection is somewhat fumbled though.
While you guys talk quite nitched games, why not post about this one: http://www.bit-blot.com/aquaria/ as it got ‘warez’ released some days ago to
Also one of the better games I tried this year.
After dl’ing this and actually playing it, I can say this much:
I’ve never sucked at sidescrolling shooters, and (not bragging, just trying to make a point) I’ve always been really good at games that require really fast reflexes, like fps’s, BUT
This game is insane. 6 tries on regular difficulty, and I couldn’t beat the first level. 2 tries on very easy, and I Still couldn’t win. I think Battletoads was easier than this.
anyone can explain to me what the chain thing is suppose to be and how it works
the graphics are nice, as well as the framerate — weapons suck, gameplay is boring. i think i got used to geometry wars pace. but yea this game looks pretty but plays wack.
Ikaruga
#58 ikaruga was a amazing game. if they ever made that for pc it would be awsome.
this is a great game if ur bored and got some time to kill.
I kinda skipped the buttons what are they lol
crtl = shoot
and arrows is move around
enter to use bomb thingy was there any other buttons?
Will this run on Windows 95 I wonder.
I figure there’s probably tons of other, already-free sidescrollers that aren’t, yaknow, obvious console wannabes (saying it’s “720p” instead of having actual resolutions, and locking at 60 Hz? Ouch). I checked quickly which games I could have installed by default in my OS:
chalker@pegasus:~$ apt-cache search shoot | grep em-up
criticalmass – Shoot-em-up a la galaxian
criticalmass-data – Shoot-em-up a la galaxian (data files)
dodgindiamond2 – Little shoot-’em-up arcade game for one or two players
geki2 – Xenon-like vertical shoot’em-up
geki3 – R-Type-like horizontal shoot’em-up
grande – vertical shoot’em-up in the spirit of Xevious
rafkill – vertical shoot’em-up similar to Raptor: Call of the Shadows
I’m sure many of those have Windows ports, and I’m sure Ubuntu’s repos have way more than that (after all, shoot’em-up is a pretty specific and arbitrary search term).
Absolutly not playable with keyboard.. Crap.
its crap YOU CANT SAVE THE GAME
and its extremly difficult…
i go back and play Raptor call of the shadows 1995;-)
hey great game to kill time quickly…… i am a CHEATER BIG CHEATER thats how i like it any one git any cheats or trainer??
i dont know how to actually install it. any help?
yes im a noob.
nvm what i said, i fixed it..
I cant run the game, it says that i need to change my refresh rate to 60Hz w/c is already at 60Hz ( using an LCD )
ye, its very hard even on “normal” setting, but you can use “very easy” too
This game is just damn hard! I love it! To those that have trouble with the “60hz refresh rate” try to switch on “vertical sync”
for those that wants to cheat, go gameburnworld and find the trainer… its VERY useful
I still havent found a way to get this game running on my LCD screen =(
shmups are awesome,and so is this game. the controls are kidna sucky tho
i downloaded the game via u-torent…it containt a virus.
WATCH OUT
Vertical sync – ON and game works fine.
