un año en el que estoy jugando muy poco y casi todo lo nuevo me está decepcionando. Seguramente diría que mi Goty es Drainus pero no salió este año. De 2026 sería Splatoon Raiders

Music is DLC.

Side scrolling shoot 'em up where you can absorb light and unleash it as a defensive offense. I enjoyed this one a lot more than Earthion. Things felt more readable. I did not latch onto the music unfortunately but was hyperfocused.

O mesmo estúdio tem um jogo de nave que é muito elogiado, mas ainda não joguei.

E eu falo "estúdio" por causa do "team' no nome, mas é um estúdio de um funcionário só, o artista/programador Daichi Saito.

Drainus was a very fun small game. Even after looping, it took me close to 4 hours to beat, which feels pretty good for a game like it. While i wasn't super into any of the characters this studio doesn't disappoint when pixel art is involved, a delight to watch, play and listen to <:

Been skipping a lot of Fridays but I'm planning to start Drainus tomorrow night on stream. I've had my eye on it for a while now and as long as i don't suck at it too bad i should be done the same day, haven't played a shmup in a long while.

DRAINUS 5 seconds off PB

Turns out attack damage x1.2 is important

Looking at some of Alliance Art's previous works, I see Drainus, I see Record of Lodoss War-Deedlit in Wonder Labyrinth-, I also see Touhou Danmaku Kagura Phantasia Lost, none of which are "AI Slop" by any means.

Add the fact looking at Alliance Art's published works shows things like Touhou Danmaku Kagura Phantasia Lost, Drainus and even Record of Lodoss War-Deedlit in Wonder Labyrinth- further proving said user is throwing stuff at the wall and seeing what sticks

No Rhythm Doctor, ENA: Dream BBQ, UFO 50, Rift of the Necrodancer, Pseudoregalia, Mouthwashing, or Drainus.

Some of these games are more popular than others, but I actually give a shit about them. I get all of your list on my PC, and also these games, all running better on older hardware.

J'vais le dire je trouve le studio de TeamLadyBug vraiment très bon!

J'avais déjà pu testé Touhou Luna Night et Drainus qui sont tous 2 excellent
J'ai enchainé tout récement par BladeChimera et bah pareil c'est d'la bonne!

Du pixel art magnifique et du bon fun en bar! un studio à suivre 🐱

Oh yeah, Drainus is fantastic.

I bought Blade Chimera after playing the hell out of Drainus, which is a top shmup for sure.

数年前から一面やっては「疲れた……🤮」と進まなかったドレイナスをやっとやっつけたぜ。フックを持たせて高難度二週目へとスムーズに進ませていくストーリー構成が実に巧み! ゲーム自体もアーハンここをこうすればええんやな(メインシステムであるエネルギー吸収をはじめとして)の誘導がまあまあしっかりしているので遊びやすかった。各種ハードで遊べるので好きなところで遊んでくれ。ワイは実績収集に向かう。あとノーマル~ハードもチャレンジしてみる。

Happy with today’s arrival, Drainus is a 2022 scrolling shootervideo game developed by Team Ladybug, co-published by Playism and WSS Playground for Microsoft Windows. This is the Japanese version for the Nintendo Switch. #Nintendo #Switch #Shmup

DRAINUS is easily one of my favorite shmups. it feels like gradius and ikaruga had a baby and gave it a name that got it bullied in school constantly, but it emerged stronger for it
August 23, 2026 at 7:13 PM
DRAINUS, despite the somewhat tragic name, is a fun and lightweight shmup with another godtier OST so I think it's a safe rec, I didn't looove Blade Chimera but I still thought it was Cool and once again has an awesome soundtrack... their soundtracks are always so damn good
