EX Chimera Mode in the upcoming 3.0 version of #SchildmaidMX is no joke. The same rule of standard Chimera Mode applies, so a single slip up will still cost you your entire run.

Four years ago I was playtesting a game for a friend… it was a shmup. A genre I’d not really played before. I’m not one for physical games… but it turns out I am a bit 😅 How it started/how it’s going! #schildmaidmx #shmup #stg

Having released an indie #shmup, it often feels like you get ignored easily by the larger gaming populace. So when
eastasiasoft offered us booth space for #SchildmaidMX at TGS 2024 we jumped at the chance.
I wrote a blog about the experience.
