Top critical reviews
The most up-voted negative English reviews in our sample, quoted as written.
“There is no boss practice, no savestates, and you can only practice stages from the beginning with no possibility to continue on game over. Lack of better practice tools on such a recent release is a shame. The game is pretty enjoyable…”
“Deathsmiles 2 has cutscenes where the volume disregards all in game settings AND the game's volume slider in Windows??? Great work, devs. Appreciate it. Only way I can see fixing this is by taking the WEBM files (yes, they're saved as WEBM…”
