I pre-ordered it from Hu-Cast 4-5 years ago. Got it 2 years ago and it sucked.

I've got the Dreamcast version, wouldn't have minded this too but sold out really quickly. I really don't like this super limited run stuff this generation for PS4. Why not just print how ever many pre order the game. Or print say 5000 see if there is much interest after that and print some more.

Agreed, not a fan of limiting supply to boost sales. I did end up picking this one up, I didn't think it would sell out this quick.

Not sure if it sucks but gameplay looks fun (similar to CAVE bullet rain shmups)

I already placed my order on play-asia and it looks like 3000 copies haven't sold out yet.................

I have the Dreamcast version and it's not very good IMHO. Inconsistent framerate, "meh" graphics, and the gameplay is mediocre in every way. I won't be ordering the new version.

I do not see any button on how to buy it. "Just save it"
Looks okay though. 3000 copies doesn't seem super low in like the USA, but world wide....no we bueno

It's 10 bucks for download, worth the price that way, it's an ode to DDP, nice effort but no DDP of course.

I really hate this new trend of selling games as limited flipper-bait "collectibles".

So excited for Night Trap and well..... crazy that Ghost Blade is going to be done by limited run as well.

I grabbed the PS4 download a while back. Compared to the Dreamcast version, the PS4 version has some updated bullet patterns and removes most of the obvious safe spots. It's a better mix of the game, however the core of it is still the same. If you don't care for the Dreamcast version then the PS4 version is not going to win you over.

For $30, that's okay...........:)
Just need some shmups for my PS4
