Gameplay Mechanics
Players engage in intense bullet‑hell combat, using a mix of melee attacks and ranged shooting. Enemy patterns and boss attacks fill the screen, demanding precise movement and timing.

- Observe enemy bullet patterns before committing to melee attacks.

Three distinct battle styles are available, each offering a unique approach to handling waves of spirits. Switching styles lets players tailor their offense and defense to specific boss mechanics.
