Merlin and King Arthur in a shmup

Defenders of Avalon

This is a unique setting for a bullet hell shooter, so I figured I'd make a post about it. You can play as Merlin or Arthur in your attempt to defend Avalon. It's made by a north american indie game developer, which might explain the lack of anime girls.

Ha, cool!

Shame its a bullet hell though, I'm not very fond of those.

I'll try it out though.

I can't take seriously a game where Arthur and Merlin aren't prepubescent girls.

I just played for a while, and this game is really fun! I played as Arthur, and I made it to stage 4 before I got a game over.

I love the music and backgrounds, and I never felt like it was unfair. Good stuff!

Also, wimpy Shmuppers such as myself appreciate healthbars. :lol:

Seriously though, this was cool, thanks JT.
