What players think
The recurring themes across 59 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
Basic allows you to save, but you'll skip the final sequence (won't spoil it exactly here, but I will say that, when you see it, you'll understand why it wouldn't work with Basic's limitations ) and the ending will be, well, basic.
Assisting with these thrills is an overall strong consideration for challenge, backed up nicely by a smooth on-ramp to the game’s “true” form in its highest selectable difficulty sporting some more aggressive fodder enemies and brilliantly reconsidered boss patterns.
Its unique art style gives it a strong personality, making it almost a piece of art that stands out from the rest, with a fun comic style storytelling, deformed cartoon characters and colorful levels.
Also, I dig the artstyle and recommend the soundtrack.
Disaster Arms is a fast-paced run 'n gun that blends fun and challenging arcade style gameplay with a very unique and beautiful cartoonish artwork.
A full button remapping menu and a modern controller may go some way towards making the experience more comfortable on a widely accessible scale, but for my purposes on an 8Bitdo M30, I wouldn’t want to have it any other way.
