Wouldn't count it as a normal fangame but was fun playing through. Game is currently unfinished.

The graphics, boss fights, and overall polish is what makes this game great. Each stage plays very differently and even though a majority of the bosses are learn-heavy, they still are fun to play. Like others have said, the final boss is pretty damn hard, but certainly doable if you are able to reach it. There's also a lot of extra content, such as achievement hunting, items in the shop, harder difficulties and an extra boss, but not all of it was designed well. To purchase every extra weapon, you need over 6,000 coins, which you receive from beating levels or bosses. But the most efficient boss to grind, Mechacrab, only gives you 30 coins for beating him with zero deaths and under 1:30. It seems like you would need to play the game multiple times, grind bosses, and beat the insanely hard extra barrage boss to even have a chance at clearing out the shop. It's a minor complaint, but I would have liked to be able to play around with the other guns and features on a casual playthrough. Other than small design flaws and the game being slightly short, there really isn't much else wrong with this game. Give it a shot if you want a fresh feeling fangame with a ton of content.
EDIT: After trying out most of the extra content, my opinion on this game changed a bit. It does actually have quite a bit of length added like the extra boss, old bosses from Time Machine 1, and secret bosses. Reina, the extra barrage boss unlocked after clearing the main game is a fantastic fight with fun, although learning heavy attacks and a really good song. It definitely is harder than anything in the main game, but is manageable. I did use a video to learn some of the patterns late into the fight, which made the grind go by much faster. I beat it in just under five hours. The returning old bosses are all fairly easy and not very exciting, but more optional content is still nice, I guess. The secret bosses are all very fast paced and are very simple once you get used to their attacks. I haven't looked into lunatic mode myself, but after seeing a few videos, it looks completely unfun and grindy, with platforming changed from good level design to a spike and trap filled mess. I would suggest to not bother with it. There is actually DLC made for this game, an extra world called Horror World. I couldn't find a download link to it, so I watched someone playthrough it on youtube. It isn't anything special, but there are a couple more bosses to grind out. I would give this game a difficulty of 45 without any extras, a 70 with all optional bosses, and a 95 with lunatic mode. I cannot recommend this game enough, it is criminally underrated and unplayed. For anyone wanting to play all the optional content, here is a pastebin with how to unlock and find them: http://pastebin.com/Lxdc8Xti

A pretty awesome game if you ask me. Liked the bosses the most and the kid sprite is pretty cool, too. And i also like the weapon shops, but I kinda dislike grinding coins for buying weapons. Maybe if the prices were high and you could instead keep the weapons forever. But that's not all that important, since I beat this with only the pistol. Overall really good.
