“Wow, an instruction book!”

That’s literally what I said when I opened my copy of Switch Toaplan Collection 2, which I got for £24 from Amazon.

It’s kind of sad that getting a booklet is that rare these days, but also quite cool they included one.

By the way, it was a shmupulations interview with Toaplan devs that got me to pull the trigger on this game.

Anyone else delete then reinstall?

TL;DR Anyone else delete the game one day, reinstall the next?

I’ve been a gamer for 40+ years. I sold games, reviewed games, appeared in games, and made games.

But my relationship with Megabonk is unique. It may be the most addicted I’ve been to a game - at least one without progression and a golden path (hundreds of hours into Skyrim and Elden Ring).

Sometimes I get mad at the game, especially when I haven’t really advanced my PB past 42k kills. Yet I keep coming back, despite having soooo many other games to play on Steam and other platforms.

I deleted it last Saturday. By Sunday, I reinstalled and was playing it. I even left this sub but still engage with it regularly.

Again, this is a first for me with any game. Just me? I mean, I’m still enjoying it. But rarely do I leave and come back - much less so quickly.
