Profusely Genuine! Explosively Orthodox! Shoot, dodge, and destroy! A die-hard style, faithful return to the origin of top down shooters! Mankind has rid the world of all crime, pain, and desire. Finally, they extinguished the source of all sin, intellect, and transcended to angeldom. A great deal of time passes. The year is now 2300000000 AD. "Earth" is a paradise of angels. The sun has begun to expand, and a long twilight is now upon this heavenly realm.

Nintendo LifeWill FreemanNov 20249/10Angel at Dusk is wonderful, weird, and built on a foundation of deep understanding of the genre, and an intelligence and self-awareness that elevates its potential to delight. Not all will take to its theme, but it presents a deeply authentic hardcore bullet hell experience, a dazzling wit, and a suite of game systems that are a joy to explore. And the fact it welcomes a wide range of players to an authentic shmup? It's one of the year's most enticing genre contributions.

Cubed3May 20247/10Come for the almost Body Horror-esque visual style, stay for the fun and adrenaline pumping shooting action! Angel at Dusk might be a bit too simple for most people, as well as too easy for Bullet Hell veterans and too hard for greenhorns, yet it manages to offer quite the enjoyable ride. It mostly suffers in the replayability department, but if found at a good discount, it's solid recommendation for genre fans and not only.
