I tried playing this game today and I found the graphics were cool but there was so much going on that I couldn't process the strategy required to play it. This was an unsatisfying experience. In contrast, I still remember Ikaruga - a bullet hell shoot 'em up which revolves around switching polarities and feels very satisfying to master.
Setup: Steam Deck. Arrange Mode.

Steam Game Time: 56 minutes

Thoughts:
Pros:
+ many types of attacks means this game gives a lot of options of players to strategize on how to beat a level and get the most points

Neutral:
~ This game is too fast-paced and has too much going on for me to enjoy

Cons:
- Some dialogue/story occurs during gameplay when I'm mainly focused on just trying to survive...
Rating: 3.8/5

Summary:
