Minishoot' Adventures is bullet hell Zelda [Steam]

I picked this one up yesterday after seeing a YouTube video on it. It's solid so far (about 90 mins in) and plays well on the Steam Deck. I'm playing on the hardest difficulty since the player achievement % makes me suspect it's not too difficult.

Easily worth $15 so far.

I love this game! It's like NES Legend of Zelda reimagined as a twin stick shooter. It really captures that same feel of being dropped in the middle of some strange wilderness and exploring it for yourself. The music and sound direction are phenomenal as well. It had me hooked from start to finish.
 
BTW thanks for reminding me. I got every Steam achievement except for finishing the game on hard. Might need to start up a second run soon.

That sounds very cool...

I'm also a sucker for hidden Indie gem kind of games and quick to pull the trigger 🫠
 
Awesome game indeed!
The combination of 2d Zelda and shmup/bullet hell feels very strange,but the moment you start playing, it feels like the most natural thing in the world.
A real gem this.
 
It's okay but I found it a bit overrated by the community. After a few hours you know how every area is going to play out (it's just 90% defeating waves of enemies to advance), puzzles are very rudimentary and there's not many, enemy variety isn't very good (and it knows it when it just starts re-skinning them to make tougher enemies halfway through) — again, not bad and a cool concept but not this fantastic indie it's been made out as, IMO
 
This has been so far the best surprise of the year. A truly fantastic game. Fun and challenging, really does hit that perfect blend of Zelda and bullet hell shooters. I'm sure it will be high on my top 10 list of the year when we get to the end of the year.
