I’ve never been able to perform it consistently.

Still, at least I can still play and have fun with shooters, right?

All you have to do in shooters is press a button once to make stuff go boom.

Wait,Nightmare Operator, what are you doing?

Nightmare Operator, no!

Misha has a fancy modular gun, with modules inflicting different types of elemental damage and status effects.

I do like me a modular gun.

I still think fondly ofRogue Trooper.

You’ll need to keep a “level head”.

It’s all sotechnical, ugh.

And yes, they’ve got my old nemesis the DP motion in there.

The enemies themselves are a characterful bunch.

You’ve got Wizard Dog, who throws X-shaped bursts of energy balls.

Its an impressive line-up, honestly.

And I’m sure the fighting game gimmick adds flair.

I look forward to hearing about how fun these creatures are to battle from Brendy, our resident Tekkenite.

There’s a slice-of-life hangout element to wash down the exor-shooting.

It sounds reminiscent of cooling off in the back alleys of Yakuza Zero.

Again, thoroughly on board with this as a concept if not at the level of my thumbs.

Still, perhaps if I play it and master it I’ll be able to enjoy Street Fighter?
