game aged so well! music, character design, even solo gameplay is awesome! super cute too! underrated, hidden gem. and game is almost 20 years old, you know...!
EDIT: i don't get all the port complaints, to be honest - having a blast with this game!

A staple on the genre. The port might not be the best but goes for real cheap, it's an essential VS piece.

I had seen the game in Japanese arcades before but never played it until now.
It's a pretty niche title and looks like it was released in the '90s. Gameplay-wise, it's kind of like Puyo Puyo in the way you try to sabotage your opponent, but it's actually a shmup rather than a match-3 game. Like Metal Slug, it's probably a lot more fun with a friend.
Really cool arcade game, especially for just €1 during a sale!

Highly Recommended 9/10*
I don't give it a 10 just because it doesn't support gamepad natively, but steam input get the works done, there are already community inputs. Its the same game from 1996, and i love it, gorgeous looking pixel art, lovely character designs, amazing voice acting, and addictive gameplay, its a 1v1 shoot em up, each one on one side, the more combos you make destroying enemies, the more your opponent gets attacked. Great classic, cant complain at all.

Best game ever. Buy for yourself and some friends. To fix lag, set game resolution to match your monitor default. Beyond that its perfect to me, the original slowed down with alot on the screen too.

Bad port but fun and sweet regardless.
