Stages go on for way too long with the same enemy wave repeating once you already figured it out. As a standout, stage 6 in the lategame consists of a whopping 2 basic enemy types you shoot for over 10 minutes. I remember stage 3 having the same enemy spawning for over 2 minutes. It's as if the stages were stretched out so that the game is longer than the 2 hour steam refund window which is just ass. Doesn't feel like the game is respecting your time with how much the same pattern is cycled over and over. Cool visual designs on enemies and bosses are the main positive standout. But why is the player ship so small its basically invisible and has a messy silhouette? If visuals are the strong point let me look at the cool player ship design and not a tiny blob with fireworks coming out. The circular player ship design and 60° aiming on the right stick feel like they would fit better in 3
This game is great! I'm looking at all the complaint reviews and I'm just not seeing it. It's a shmup, and a hard one at that, but if you pick a sensible upgrade path, and manage your resources right, it's not unbearable. It's been a long time since someone put this much graphical might into the venerable shmup genre. It's good to see a release like this in the year 2024. If you like shmups, don't miss this one.
CYGNI will be free to claim from Aug-08 to Aug-15 on the Epic Games Store. While the game is enjoyable, I recommend waiting for a steep sale should you be set on owning it on Steam. 📝 Main Pros, Cons, and Suggestions: 🟩 Pros: + Auto-fire toggle + Unique energy mechanic + Challenging levels with enjoyable bosses + Distinct targeting between air and ground enemies + A showcase in brilliant audio and visual presentation, truly a cinematic experience + Weapon slots, modifiers, and custom firing patterns (unlocked after beating the game) 🟥 Cons: - UI isn’t intuitive - While it presents brilliantly visually, clarity is poor - Poor movement controls make precise dodging difficult - Enemy variety is low, leading to sections feeling artificially stretched out - Ground enemies feel like an afterthought, adding no real value to gameplay - Stage 1 delivers a horrible onboarding experienc
CYGNI: All Guns Blazing Looks beautiful. Great sound when your gunship is blasting away. Playing first Stage / Level was fun in the begining but after awhile OMFG will this stage ever end!? None stop throwing enemy drones at me as cannon fodder same enemy over and over again. I just couldnt take it anymore it was boring asf! and tedious. Damn shame because could have been great! Stages needs to be shorter with more variations of enemies.
There's potential here, but overall I recommend skipping this; I feel like I paid $20 for graphics, $5 for the actual gameplay, and $5 for the new ideas towards a good shmup. The game opted for quantity over quality in actual combat and quality in the wrong places. --- The game rolls through 7 stages with 3 difficulty options, but it has a really rough introduction with the first stage being arguably the hardest due to being one of the longest, requiring the most multi-tasking between air and ground management, and giving you multiple boss fights; you also have to play it on initial boot with none of the upgrades that the game is very clearly balanced around you already having. The next-to-last stage is exactly at the level of difficulty I expected for the opening stage of a shmup, with super simple enemies, almost no ground interaction, and a boss that I probably could have literally
Rating: ★★☆☆☆ Overview I really wanted to love Cygni. It’s a new Shmup from Konami with eye-catching graphics that reminded me of Sky Force and those beloved 80s & 90s shooters. I pre-ordered it, played it on both PC and Steam Deck, and even tackled it on hard mode. Here’s the reality check: unless you got it for free or with 75% discount, save your money and your sanity. Gameplay & Level Design Shmup Basics: The typical Shmup formula is start easy, collect points, upgrade your ship, unlock new stuff, rinse, and repeat. But Cygni's execution is seriously flawed. The tutorial introduces weapons that aren’t actually available, then throws you into Stage 1 with a normal difficulty setting. After about 15 minutes of fighting three bosses with just one life, you'll be asking yourself two things: “Am I terrible?” and “Why is normal mode so not normal?” Spoiler: It’s the latter. And seriously,
