It's been out on PC for a couple years now, but if you haven't already played Schildmaid you should absolutely check it out. It has the rare magic of an extremely low and approachable skill floor and a ridiculously high and expressive skill ceiling. I love it.
This November 26, our #shmup #SchildmaidMX is out on #NintendoSwitch, #PlayStation4, #PlayStation5 and #Xbox Series X|S, in collab with eastasiasoft.
It's an all new version, with 2 additional EX modes, balance tweaks & more improvements.

The anniversary of one of the best moments is approaching fast
Hiroyuki Maruyama of G.rev (and ex-Taito), designer of such legendary games as G Darius, Border Down and Under Defeat (plus contractor for Treasure on games like Ikaruga and Gradius V) played our game Schildmaid MX at TGS yesterday and he liked it! BUZZING.

I was sure I was going to die here at least 3 times.
EX Chimera Mode in the upcoming 3.0 version of #SchildmaidMX is no joke. The same rule of standard Chimera Mode applies, so a single slip up will still cost you your entire run.

Radiant Silvergun is one of the best to ever do it, and its Saturn version was what made that a fact. On the game itself, Treasure's design philosophy, the inward-looking state of STG at the time, what made Radiant Silvergun so different and special, and what keeps it a killer play decades later.
30 years of the Sega Saturn: Radiant Silvergun
One of the highlights of both the Saturn and Treasure's library, which should tell you something out of the gate.
