When it comes to 2D action games, you'd be hard-pressed to find a more satisfying experience than Gunvolt Chronicles: Luminous Avenger iX. From its spot-on presentation to its high-octane action, it's a prime example of 2D action done right.
Gunvolt Chronicles: Luminous Avenger iX was absolutely grand. While the game is somewhat on the shorter side, various gameplay improvements made this one the best in the series. It is clear that the developers focused on swiftness and getting to the cool stuff as soon as possible. The game flows well as a result, encouraging you to go back and improve your performance in certain stages. The level design and gameplay mechanics make for a very sharp 8.5 hours.

This game make me fell like the first day I control Zero in Megaman X5. I mean, I love X and Gunvolt but Zero and iX is even better!

Control is tight and responsive, fast-paced with well-written plot. This is the best platformer-game I have played so far

Gunvolt Chronicles: Luminous Avengers iX is a fast-paced but well-designed platformer that keeps up Inti Creates' streak of awesome games.
The series is steadily moving forward with the latest installment being the best yet by keeping the same unique gameplay and improving other aspects of the experience.
What we have here is a thoroughly enjoyable and rewarding action platformer which lives up to the quality as expected from the studio. Its minor quibbles do little to tarnish what is a charming game and all-round rewarding experience. The ride does end a little too quickly and veterans of the genre may desire a bit more of a challenge, but on the whole this is a great little game which confirms the studio as being perhaps the best in their field.
Gunvolt Chronicles: Luminous Avenger iX follows the footsteps of the Azure Striker Gunvolt series and does so in a very fun and competent way. Thanks to its fluid and simple controls, frantic gameplay and defying bosses, this is a perfect work for those who enjoyed its predecessors and inspirations, even if it has some rough edges when it comes to its boss fights and soundtrack.
A curious example of a title being both more refined, but also less good than its predecessor. The action is smoother, better, and overall much more engaging. Purely as a platformer it is great fun, can be picked up cheap, and is only marred by simplistic, one-way levels and its short length. As an entry it is inferior to its predecessor with the removal of various gear, crafting, and challenges, making it a one-trick pony. It's awesome, but it doesn't have the magic the previous one did. Copen, one of the cooler characters in recent history, lacks much of his style that was memorable in previous games. This series is one of the coolest in recent times, and while this does not disappoint, it doesn't live up to how absolutely great it could be.
This game was great and enjoyed every second of the gameplay and story and I would easily give this game a 10/10

Inti Creates is simply a stamp of quality on every product! They have yet to disappoint me in all of the games that I have played from them: Wasn't BMZ awesome enough? Ok, take BMZ2 then! Do you enjoy Megaman style games but also love loot griding? Alright, here is Dragon Marked for Death! Its like they make games tailored just for me...
And now...after Two Gunvolt titles and a possible 3rd one that is having troubles coming out of the hoven, one might **** that sort of spin off game a stretch? Maybe they are pushing it and the quality will suffer for it...
Nope! They did it again! 10/10 this game ROCKS!

Purchased this game on day one after reading all of the recommendations. I am new to the Gunvolt series, so this was gamble for me. This game did not disappoint, hours melted away as I pushed forward for upgrades and to continue the story line. The in game mechanics do a great job teaching the player new ways to use copied weapons. I highly recommend this to any action platformer fan who digs future aesthetics and pixel art.

The day Inti makes a bad game it will be a very sad day, beacuse so far they seem nail every single game they make!
Its one of the last devs that I can blindly pre-order their games because I have absolutely no fear of being disappointed!
The only reason I give Luminous Avenger a 9 and not a 10, its purely because I find Gunvolt2 a little better (which I rated a 10) so in order to be fair, a distinction had to be made.

Summary The hero, Copen, can dash into enemies to lock-on onto them so his shots never miss their mark. Put your ingenuity to the test, and you can use his "Bullit Dash" to fly through stages without touching the ground! You have many tools at your disposal, so make find a style that works for you and conquer each stage with style.
