Ruchiruno Games has just unveiled their latest creation, Energy Drain Shooter, set to hit Japanese storefronts next month. This fast-paced 3D bullet hell shooter invites players to immerse themselves in a thrilling challenge where absorbing energy from enemy bullets is key. By dodging waves of attacks and retaliating with powerful homing lasers, players can experience an adrenaline-pumping gameplay loop. Pre-registrations for Energy Drain Shooter are now open on both the App Store and Google Play.
The game's core mechanic, Energy Drain, is both innovative and demanding. Players are rewarded for narrowly avoiding enemy fire, with the proximity to bullets determining the amount of energy absorbed. This energy fills your gauge, boosting your score and unlocking Hard Mode for those who master the system. In Hard Mode, the intensity of enemy attacks escalates, providing an even greater challenge.
Players have three attack options at their disposal: melee strikes, normal shots, and homing lasers. Normal shots can be enhanced by passing through special gates, while the homing laser targets multiple enemies simultaneously, creating a chain reaction of destruction. Each stage concludes with a boss fight, where players must navigate complex bullet patterns, requiring quick reactions and strategic maneuvering.
Energy Drain Shooter consists of five stages, each with unique enemy formations, obstacles, and attack patterns. Surviving isn't just about dodging; players must manage their energy, position themselves effectively, and time their attacks perfectly. From laser barrages to blade-like projectiles, the bullet hell encounters keep battles unpredictable and engaging.
For those seeking an elevated challenge, Hard Mode becomes available after achieving a high score in Normal Mode. This mode features faster enemies and more intricate bullet patterns, pushing players' reflexes and strategic thinking to the limit.
Energy Drain Shooter is scheduled for release on March 15th. It is a premium game priced at ¥480. You can pre-register by clicking on your preferred link below. For more information, visit the official website.
