All I can say at this stage is that this series annoys the fuck out of me for what they could have beed. There was a lot of potential in the overall design.

It's a clever adaptation of rail shooter game mechanics. Instead of hordes of zombies wanting to kill you, it's hordes of cute girls wanting you. Instead of hitting you they're confessing but you cannot accept because angel girl is a fuck-up. Instead of grabbing you to eat your guts out, they're smooching (or dominating you if they're possessed). Instead of shooting a glowing weakpoint all of the 60 or so unique girls like being shot in a particular place which instantly incapacitates them. There's a lot I love but what they haven't managed to do is really run with this premise. The gameplay is too basic and all of the girls are pretty much identical in behaviour when they should have varied attack patterns based on their archetype.

I found it added an extra level of difficulty to the game, as I would frequently be tempted to lose on purpose if one of my favourite girls showed up in a special case (demonically possessed Otome in a swimsuit, instant game over). It WAS unfortunate that the only way to see some of these animations was to find the right level, get far enough to see your girl, and then lose on purpose.

To be fair, they fixed it (somewhat) in Gal Gun 2: rescuing girls in specific missions rewards you with their phone numbers. You can then call your favourite girl and (once you get her affection high enough) ask her to do any of the animations for you, including pushing you down and stepping on you.

>they should have varied attack patterns based on their archetype.

This x1000. I wish they'd gone in this direction for GG2. The girls are already a widely varied bunch with surprisingly detailed personalities for how many of them there are; each of them has their own distinct voice (and even their own endings, in Double Peace). It would have been perfect if they actually moved/attacked in distinct ways appropriate to their personalities in-game.

At max affection they also don't mind you perving up their skirt or getting really close. Like quite a few Japanese games they get little details right. It's just too often they don't get the major ones. Also Risu, school council, and the gamer girl trio are cutes.

Still might check this one out.

That is the definition of wasted potential.

Being beset on all sides by sluts is the very concept of the game. Victory is pushing them all away, being kissed is defeat. It's not a hard concept to understand.

In DP there is a route that lets you choose any of the girls including the teachers but they're nowhere near as fleshed out as the main routes. A game over sort of counts too since the MC is basically succumbing to their wiles, and what's neat about that is there's multiple lines per girl and also different ones from possessed girls.

In 2, there's no official pairing up with any but the main girls but side-questing gets you their phone numbers. Then you can interact with them in places, and at max affection even at your place. Not all that deep but that also has its cute details.

Titty nurse is delightfully naughty.
