Sengoku Cannon: Sengoku Ace Episode III

Shmup by Psikyo.

I guess something about an evil warlord dood and a samurai? Iunno! HALP! D:

Gameplay involves, well, shooting the things to clear them out for points! We have rapid fire/shot, a focus shot/laser for damage, and a bomb! The important button is the Cannon button. It can do a decent chunk of damage but it is pretty slow and it is also the main scoring button. The idea is that you use the Cannon button to finish off an enemy. The lower the health when it is defeated by the Cannon, the higher the multiplier is. It also turns that enemy's bullets into coins for more points! If you hit an enemy with the Cannon but fail to defeat it, you can't get the multiplier even if you finish the enemy off with it. Thankfully, the game has an enemy life bar but that has its own problems: it only shows the life for the last enemy you hit. If there's multiple chonky bois getting hit, it can be a little hard to gauge if you can Cannon it for points, especially if you are going for the big multipliers.

This longplay no-skills the game while trying to score but scuffs it up!
