Gameplay
You control Gabriella, an angel whose mission is to protect heaven from outside threats. Use your magic to defeat the enemy, while dodging a barrage of bullets. Hitting bosses with your arrows will make them drop Energy that power up your arsenal, as well as all important point items. Prove yourself against three different foes!
Hints
- Use bombs
- You have to land in between flying to recover your stamina. Be careful when touching down!
- If a boss is too hard, you can use continues. These unlock after enough deaths to a boss.
- The less hits you take, the higher your grade!

This was a fun change of pace.
I see I got the bad ending but this as fun
Tons of fun! I'm not experienced with bullet hell (though MGGJ games are getting me there slowly), but I found the challenge level just about right on this one.
The artwork is excellent, I especially like the stage backgrounds. The music all works well too. Storywise, the first part seemed a little disconnected from the next two parts. Otherwise, it worked well.
The controls were interesting. I've seen complaints that they were too twitchy... I found them JUST about right. They could probably be toned down just a tad. The flight mechanic was neat... I found it a little hard to use though, and only really found it useful on a few boss phases. Most of my time was spent on the ground. I could probably get used to the flight controls if I needed to use them more.
One other stray observation, the first few times power-ups flew at me I ran like heck thinking they were bullets! I got used to that though.
I did two playthroughs (couldn't stop at the bad end!!) I managed to improve to Good Ending 3, score 51/100. I'll give it another shot once I've finished the other MGGJ games!
Great work!
Thanks for playing <3
The artwork is brilliant! I love the illustration style and big player dialog closeups. The movement is a little on the twitchy side and there are so many things to memorize. Overall it's pretty solid though.
Thanks a lot for playing! Glad you liked the game overall as well as the illustrations!
Cool! The controls are a bit hard to get used to, but its a nice take on the Touhou type game. I feel the story is a bit confusing, but the gameplay / graphics are nice.
Thanks for playing!
