So, about the port!

[Michel Baie]

- Resolution options : none. Windowed or fullscreen. I had to quit the game when going fullscreen but since then it works.
- FPS : solid 60. Lots of "cave time" in this game so make sure to check with either FRAPS or the steam option before complaining about slowdowns.
- Hiscores: as with the launch version of Mushihimesama, they aren't saved locally.
[EDIT] Actually, while the "today's scores" board is cleaned each time you start the game, the all time scores ARE saved.
- VSYNC : none in game, and you may have screen tearing. Just use your GPU settings, it should do the trick.

They kept the custom window stretching for the games, so you don't have to play with the background pictures, which is nice.

Not seeing any unintended frame drops myself, but I will note that the "arcade" versions of deathsmiles are HORRIBLY pixelated. I've played the mame version and it didn't look nearly that bad, though this is after stretching the window to fit my screen, so that may be the reason.

Controllers : Xbox 360 is supported (obviously).
Dualshock 4 kinda works (Start button is on R2, the "ok" button is square, they can't be configured, and you'll have to deal with the Xbox prompts)
Arcade sticks : the RAP4 (Hori) doesn't work at all.

Currently using Logitech f310 Controller. Perfectly supported as well.

Use InputMapper and make the DS4 emulate an X360 controller.

The arcade version that you see here is exactly how it looks like in the arcade PCB version.

Local scores save just fine. Again, the first screen you see is for the temporary "today's" scores. Press a button to switch to the "all time" scores.

That's how it's supposed to look. That is literally how many pixels it has. I don't understand why this is ever a criticism. MAME looks the same way, you can just apply a light filter to it. The port has this filter too.

I still get the same issues I had in Mushihimesama where connecting to leaderboards will always cause me to drop down to a terrible framerate in menus and in game. Anyone else have that problem in either game?

[NeoStrayCat]

Nope, everything for me is just perfect, barring a few issues though, but its fine.

[Ricky the "No Guard"]

Haven't had anything like that for Mushi or Deathsmiles.

You can resize the game window by dragging the corner of it to the right with your mouse by the way.

MadCats TE2 works out of the box for me, that said still using x360ce because you can't remap some keys like pause or restart who's mapped to pretty bad keys.

Works great aside from that initial crash when changing to full screen. Playing with an arcade stick. Feels good man. I also have the Android version. Nice to finally have the full sized game.

Damn, you're right.
Corrected.

Both my sticks work straight off the bat without having to use joytokey.

- Hori RAP EX-SE
- Qanba Q4 RAF SE II

The "today's" scores are supposed to be cleared anyway, that is correct behavior. Those are the scoreboards that work like older arcade games where scores simply didn't save, they would be deleted when the machine is powered off.
