I think the problem is that people are neglecting the deflector controls! As I told through email earlier, the deflector is essential unless you are a hardcore "shmuper"! Without using the deflector the game is basically on Very Hard Mode. But if you use the deflector the game becomes easier depending on which character you choose. In other words , Roger is easy, Bryan is medium and Naomi is hard!
In order to prove my point I made a video of me playing the game with Roger using the deflector controls!

Also , someone on tigsource complained about the bullets not being visible. I cant really see how that is unless you're monitor is messed up LOL. If anyone else has this problem can you explain it to me?
In reply to his post I said "You should check out a game called "Clean Asia!". Im sure you've heard of it by now right? Cactus' well known shmup game, is one of the hardest shmups I've ever played! On the "China" level, all the bullets are white... Which wouldn't be a problem if your character wasn't also white and didn't almost look like a bullet himself! But despite that, the game is still awesome and I never hear people complain about the character almost looking like a bullet LOL.... ITS A CONSPIRACY!!!"
