Comments on: Retro/Grade Coming to PS3! http://blog.us.playstation.com/2009/07/20/retrograde-coming-to-ps3/ The official PlayStation Blog for news and video updates on PS3, PS4, PSN, PS Vita, PSP Thu, 20 Jun 2013 06:19:30 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.5.1 By: Matt Gilgenbach http://blog.us.playstation.com/2009/07/20/retrograde-coming-to-ps3/comment-page-3/#comment-358334 Matt Gilgenbach Mon, 27 Jul 2009 20:48:04 +0000 http://blog.us.playstation.com/?p=13599#comment-358334 No the ship doesn\’t move sideways. All the gameplay is on one axis similar to space invaders. However, the movement is split up into discrete space lanes. The idea behind this is to make it really clear where you have to be in order to un-fire your shots. The game is more of a rhythm game than a shmup, but we are incorporating some neat aspects of shooters as well.

We are huge shoot \’em up fans at 24 Caret, but we feel that there are a number of outstanding shoot \’em up titles available presently, so we are concentrating on creating the best backwards experience ever! It may seem confusing, but when you actually play the game, you\’ll get the hang of it pretty quickly!

Thanks for your interest!

Making a demo is a very time consuming process, and we want to keep our heads down and focus on finishing the game! Thanks for your question.

I might as well add I find your new concept rather confusing. Nevertheless I’m a big BIG Shoot’em Up fan and your game looks great. Is it possible to also play it the normal ordinary way of progress-forward-shoot-n-blow-up? :)

Best of luck to you guys!

Sorry for double post.
