I can't stress enough how excellent this game is(provided you like the genre).Cave has long been known as one of the kings of bullet hell type games, but this is surprisingly the first Cave game to be localized for a US release on a console.The only other I know of to get on shore at all is Espgaluda II, which was released on iPhone and is also an excellent port.

Synopsis

There are basically 6 different versions of the game.They are split up into the original arcade port, a version 1.1 arrange version and an xbox 360 specific version.There are 2 versions of each of those, the normal and the MBL(mega black label) version.MBL versions are a special edition of sorts.In that version there is 1 extra character playable and 1 extra level.

Anyway, you are presented with a choice of 4 different girls to play and you play through an other world where you are attacked by monsters and spirits typical of a Halloween setting.You will fight flying pumpkins, ghosts, goblins and Death himself.As you progress farther the difficulty increases and you eventually reach the your goal.Don't worry about whether or not you'll make it here.There are different difficulty levels selectable per level, and you can continue after deaths.Difficulty levels range from a relative easy to blisteringly hard so you can suit that to your own tastes.There's even a "Level 999" option if you really want to hurt yourself.

As far as controls go, they are spot on.You'll never feel like you're fighting the game to do what you want.Everything is fluid and solid.

Finally, there are several nice extra features.You get online leaderboards, a score attack mode, replay saving so you can watch how you did and a practice mode for attacking a specific level until you get it right.

I really can't recommend this title enough if you enjoy these types of games.We don't often even see bullet hell shooters on US soil.It would be a shame to pass up one of the best ones.

Enter the world of Gilverado, a kingdom plagued by hideous monsters and tortured souls. Choose from four angels with unique demonic familiars and battle against a storm of enemies pouring out of Hell's gates. Fight your way out of tight spots as you are surrounded by enemy units and bullets from both sides of the screen. The unique left/right shooting mechanic of Deathsmiles will keep you on your toes as you dodge and weave through complex enemy fire, beautifully crafted by the game development team at Cave.

Gameplay
Deathsmiles is a side-scrolling shoot 'em up game. The four playable warrior angel characters possess "life points," instead of lives, which sustain them throughout the game and can be replenished. The game features a variety of play modes, including Power-up mode, which will unleash great streams of golden crowns, white tiaras, and grey skulls as you cut through enemies with your little Angel's mighty magic shot. Try not to get distracted by the bling as you collect these gorgeous trinkets en masse and pump your high score to the limit. Additional engrossing functionality includes a co-op game mode and leaderboard available to players over Xbox LIVE.
