DO expect very interesting stage design, the smoothest controls, a robust arcade mode, very interesting special weapon mechanics, amazing OST and fantastic visuals
Natsuki Chronicles, developed by Qute Corporation and published by Rising Star Games, is a standout entry in the horizontal shoot ’em up genre that offers a rich blend of storytelling and intense gameplay.

there's one thing I wanna emphasise: accessibility. being able to set any movespeed in either movespeed slot and select toggle or hold (plus having full analog control for those on controller, not me, I play on arcade stick) is something almost unheard of in the genre and it makes certain you can find a configuration that is comfortable for you. this is what ginga force was most sorely missing, alongside a robust arcade mode, which natsuki chronicles also has.
The 'world building' (sekaikan) of the games is cohesive, and the storylines are engaging with tonnes of original Japanese voice acting, tranlated with subtitles.
