, One against one. Inspired by Japanese shooting and doujin games, it features a cast of colorful girls fighting each other with patterns of bullet hell. In addition to local 1v1 battles, it features a fully realized story mode with unique boss battles.Unlike other one-on-one fighting games that have some elements of bullet hell, Maiden & Spell seeks to capture the true spirit of bullet hell in their combat. There are no melee attacks; all are magic bullets. There are no crashes or shutdowns, instead there are cooling “bombs” and impact boxes just six pixels wide. Your victory depends on successfully dodging your opponent’s danmaku patterns … while casting your own!
