OVERpowered, OVERswarmed, OVERthrilled.



<span class="bold">Raiden IV: Overkill</span>, a frenetic vertical scrolling shooter, is available now DRM-free on GOG.com with a 30% launch discount.

In the days of yore when coin-ops ruled the Earth, top-down shoot-'em-ups were the best method of making humans deposit their hard-earned cash into the bellies of our rattling mechanical overlords. Coinops are nearly extinct now, but vertical scrolling shooters are here to stay, and Raiden IV: Overkill is the living, breathing, over-addictive proof! Clear screen after screen of swarming enemies with your formidably overpowered weaponry - leaving heaps of floating space debris in your wake. And be sure to gear up for the epic boss fights, because these oversized devils are going to take all the firepower and skill you can muster.

Collect weapons and power-ups, pump up your ship and try the all-new Overkill game mode, in which you'll earn points for eliminating enemies the moment they appear on screen. And all that with an impressive 3D coating that makes every bit of Raiden IV: Overkill look spiffier than ever.



Blow up scores of space-hoodlums and look cool doing it in <span class="bold">Raiden IV: Overkill</span>, now DRM-free on GOG.com. The launch discount will last until February 17, 1:59 PM GMT.


Note: Raiden IV: Overkill does not currently include Global Leaderboards and Replays, so the base price has been lowered to reflect this. The game's price will return to normal once these features are added. Owners of the game will not have to pay extra.
The bullet-hell you say!
Looks alright, if you're into the genre. I think the last shmup I played was Super Strike Gunner, so I'm not quite up to date with it.
Well I suck at I-III. Let's find out if IV is a charm! :D
Nice for the shmup fans like Memoriesin8bit. :)
Awesome! Had a blast with 3. I hope I can get it soon enough. :)
FFFIINNNNNAAAAALLLLLYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!! :)))))))))))
How does this game compare to the other Raiden games on GOG?
still traumatized by the shmup section of evoland 2. If I can't handle that, I better stay clear of this one.

Bullet hell games are like the only genre that's designed not to be fun.
Does anyone know if the game supports portrait mode ? To use with a rotating screen.
Looks very nice but it's not my cup of tea. I used to play shmups when I was younger (although my preference was in horizontal sidescrolling rather than vertical) but it's been a long time since I played one. Out of curiosity; can you rotate the view so you can play it with your monitor positioned vertically (sitting on it's side) so there is no screen estate wasted (as it appears on the screenshots)?
?1?!/11/1/1/!?!?!?!?!Wait, what? Whiskey Tango Foxtrot . . ...Instabuy!

(Oh Yeah!)
Waiting for Chacranajxy and ReynardFox's reactions. In the meantime, this will be an instabuy for me.
Oh, a shmup. I guess a lot of people will be very happy right now.
