after promising you a sokoban puzzle game and tricking you into playing a turn-based RPG, DDR, a visual novel and a borderline ARG throughout, System Erasure still had their ultimate weapon: tricking you into playing a bullet hell again
“ZeroRanger surely covered all the mecha/anime shmup tropes already, what new can Void Stranger bring with that?” [FUSION SEQUENCE BURSTS THROUGH THE DOOR BEHIND ME]
"I wonder... Maybe we're simply too late. All light that reaches us is just a faded memory. If we wish to escape their fate... We must shine even brighter. Our light must become endless."
"Become endless? To hell with all of that! I'm happy because we're together, right here and now. Even when the last star burns out... This memory will surely remain. Because I love you."
System Erasure games are arguably a better masterclass in leitmotif than any other game. this got me feeling feelings. STAGE ० START! 0:11 - Green Orange (listen to the strings) Track melody - Voided Sine wave blips - Voided, but those were also in the Release trailer.
During the beginning of this entire shmup sequence there were some images, briefly popping in and out and i noticed one of them looked like the discovery of the lotus jewel's wrecked mech form in space... curious...
Ah yes, the track of absolute confusion. I love this section and replaying it's a ton of fun, but I do have to admit I spent most of my first time through it trying to figure out whether the orbs were helpful or damaging. Thank goodness for the sword attacks being so dang strong! It's quite commendable how even through the haze of "not knowing the mechanics", the spectacle of it all shines through. The giant rhombus laser of death especially stuck with me. It's incredible how much was done and shown with just 4 colors!
Thank you System Erasure, thank you for the most wonderful game I have ever played. I really hope whatever you guys make next, whether it’s Black Onion for ZeroRanger or another game, will top this one just like it did with ZeroRanger. All of us here love your work and never want you guys to stop
I got to this section for the first time about 35 hours into my 80 hour playthrough, still so much other stuff to uncover at the time, but it really blew my mind. I had been waiting all game for this kind of twist and I was not disappointed. Thank you eebro and System Erasure for a phenomenal game.

I can’t believe this entire game was just a psyopp from system erasure to get us to play another Shmup that’s true dedication to the craft
How to make someone feel unstoppable: this sequence of events.

This. Yeah. 🥰
THEY FUCKING DID IT AGAIN FOLKS!
THEY MADE ONCE AGAIN THE GREATEST SHUMUP IN HISTORY!

"What the fuck is even going on anymore but also this is peak gaming im loving it"
"...Flew?"
SUCH a good track, such a fun lead-in to everything, what a way to end the game!
(yes yes there's an epilogue but come ON bro)
May you all bask in the glory of the stars.
0:41 was SUCH a fantastic moment. Beautiful theme for a beautiful, eye-opening, impossible moment for this layer cake of abyssal surprises.
My favorite part was when Graypefruit went in the AbAddon fighter and said "it'd voidin' time" then proceeded to void all over the place
AbADDon fighting against LEViathan… can’t believe System Erasure devs unknowingly reached into my head smh 😤
THE ABADDON FIGHTER
@@Ranney165I did make that connection in my head a while ago and I was like, “wait… are Add and Grapefruit connected”
Really loving the incorporation of the voided motif here
I mean, that's what the Void's caretaker was hiding. That's what Add was holding on for.
System Erasure games are arguably a better masterclass in leitmotif than any other game. this got me feeling feelings.
STAGE ० START!
0:11 - Green Orange (listen to the strings)
Track melody - Voided
Sine wave blips - Voided, but those were also in the Release trailer.
During the beginning of this entire shmup sequence there were some images, briefly popping in and out and i noticed one of them looked like the discovery of the lotus jewel's wrecked mech form in space... curious...
Love the green orange motif at like 15 seconds in
May you achieve enlightenme- oops wrong game
This track and sequence was such a good way to end off an amazing game. Bravo System Erasure!
>"end" the game
@@ConvoBreakerlmao
A part of me wants this to become a big animated movie or something. ❤
God, I adore this game
absolutely peak
LET'S
FUCKING
GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Did you know: there are extra scenes if you die during this?
well, time to replay the entire game to see them.

Yeah, figuring out what the orbs are doing -- amidst all that chaos -- was a special kind of fun! Should I collect them, or should I destroy them...?
@@MyOtheHedgeFox The answer is yes!
YEAHHHHHHHHH BABIEEEEE
WE'RE FINALLY HERE Y'ALL! TIME TO HOLD ON
Loosely sang the lyrics to Voided a bit after 2:00 kicked in, this game makes you feel things man
Also awesome throwback to Sky XXXX Days
Our light must become endless.
I LOVE this game

BEEEELLLLLLLLSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
What a fucking beautiful song.. Thank you Eebro and Ebbo so much..
Fantastic final sequence.
Been waiting for this one. Absolute fuckin banger
Good "Voided" leitmotif
Void the infinite black.
Burn into infinite light.
This music is my shmup soul in music notes from now on.
FUCK YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
the bullet hell in you never leaves.
My favorite song in the game!
...Welp, time to add another Indie to my list of games to play
spectacular
LET'S GOOOOOOOOO
Best
They fly now?
Is it too late to ask for a spotify playlist?
