This vertical scrolling shoot’em up adds a number of modern refinements to the genre’s common conventions; that said your personal enjoyment of the game might depend more on your opinion of the genre as a whole.
Solar Shifter EX doesn’t add anything special to its genre, but it is certainly a solid entry worth a play or two if you dare.
More than anything, the camera issues are the biggest drawback, along with the gameplay devolving into finding 'the safe spot’ to survive more than using reflex skill.
Some nice mechanics here but flawed in almost all aspects.
Solar Shifter EX is a shiny, yet boring entry into the shmup library. It offers a slightly unique mechanic in the form of teleportation that could have made for amazing gameplay, however, the game never really takes advantage of it.
A generic, bland but functional SHMUP whose technical issues make it unenjoyable and tedious to actually play.
Solar Shifter EX tries to follow the path of great bullet hell shooters, but fails due to a too chaotic and unreadable battlefield and a confusing rotating camera.
