Here's my Let's Try of the SAGE 2025 demo of Metal Crisis (PC), a PS1-styled 2D side-scrolling SHMUP, in-development by DjEAR.

SHORT DESCRIPTION: "METAL CRISIS is a side-scrolling shoot 'em up inspired by 3D space shooter's of the 90s. On your mission to retrieve or destroy stolen military intel you'll navigate deep into enemy-occupied territory in the most advanced ship Earth has created - the 'CRISIS UEF MK.I. Able to steal weapons and turn them against your foes, you'll need to be resourceful and quick while dodging an onslaught of enemy fire for casual and experienced pilots alike. With original music that pays homage to an era long past - METAL CRISIS is a throwback adventure from start to finish."
