Kenta Cho's Titanion Hustles Into View
Ta to The2Bears for spotting that PC dojin/freeware shooter guru Kenta Cho has debuted his latest game, Titanion, and it looks rather peachy.
It's explained: "Titanion is a little like Galaga, with the enemies quickly flying around and into the screen in different waves. It has a nice twist, though. In Galaga your own ship could be captured, and if you got it back you added to your firepower."
What's more: "In Titanion you are the one with the capture beam, and captured ships add to your firepower (a little like in Tumiki Fighters). Graphics and sound are classic ABA, meaning abstract and very stylish. Stop reading and get the game, it’s another great offering." Quick, go download!

So... it's Gaplus?

That's the first comment on The2Bears' post too: "This actually seems most similiar to gaplus, aka galaga 3, in which you get a capture beam that can be used to recruit enemy ships." Sorry, too lazy to relay :P

Still, it's one of the most intense and enjoyable games I've played in a while. I enjoy all kinds of games, but sometimes it's great to just play something where nothing but skill and reflexes matter at all.
