What Makes it EXplode
Your first step in Crimzon Clover – World EXplosion is choosing how you want to play, as well as which powerful ship will be yours to command. Choose your version from ARCADE (true to the original arcade game), NOVICE (better if this is your first step into the world of hardcore shmuppage), or ARRANGE (a whole new can of worms with unique mechanics and novel challenges never seen before in the Crimzon Clover saga), then choose your Mode from BOOST, ORIGINAL, UNLIMITED, and TIME ATTACK.
- Utilize the newly added Multi-Gauge to give yourself unique power-ups based on items collected from downed foes!
- Destroy foes, then dodge their last-ditch revenge shots for an added challenge in the new BOOST Mode.
- Shoot enemy bullets out of the sky directly in the new UNLIMITED Mode.
- And much more!
Additionally, the Switch edition of the game supports full gameplay in handheld mode, including control optimizations for vertical screen orientations so that those looking to have a true arcade experience on the go can fulfill that wish handily!
Can you pilot your craft through the bullet massacre the enemies have prepared for you? Or will your ship become just another bump amidst the endless wreckage beneath your wings?
