Those son of guns over at Level 99 Games have done it again. They've created an kick butt new board game experience.
Surely they can't keep getting away with this?

The real-time aspect of this game appeals to me, but I just can't appreciate the anime settings that Level 99 utilizes. Just not my thing at all.

It's interesting to see how the boardgame world has reacted to the all-female cast. In shmups, the prevalence of all-female casts is seen as a sign of otaku-pandering so it's interesting how a different context can put it in a different perspective.ubarose wrote: We've been having a lot of fun with Bullet. The Spawn was psyched that all the characters are female. She wants to try all of them.

I'd imagine this isn't the last we've heard of Bullet, the system seems endlessly expandable.

Bullet Orange is already up for preorder, its a licensed expansion that ties in with a series of japanese shmups called Orange Juice. adds 4 more heroines, and i believe releases in July. Bullet Star is currently in playtesting, and is a standalone expansion that I believe doubles the number of heroines and adds a lot more high complexity/weird heroines.

I don't know what "otaku-pandering" is, or really even what a shmups is. Neither my daughter or I are much into anime or video games. Bullet is just a fast, fun game, with many cute yet powerful playable female characters, that, to our eyes at least, aren't over sexualized, that we can play together, and that my daughter feels comfortable playing with all her female friends.
