About the game
DT Danmaku 2 is a vertical shooter in the danmaku (bullet hell) style. A small ship flies up a wooded landscape of hexagonal tiles, enemies come at it from the top of the screen, and they answer your fire with patterns of bullets that fill the screen and have to be woven through.
What makes the genre work is that the ship's hitbox is only a few pixels at its centre: a bullet that crosses the sprite without touching that spot does no harm. So the game is about reading the patterns and finding the gaps, not about avoiding everything. Hold Z to shoot and hold Shift to slow down time, which makes it far easier to make the small, precise movements that the denser patterns demand. The game has bosses and several enemy types.

A few things worth knowing
Trust the small hitbox. Only the centre of the ship can be hit; bullets can touch the wings.
Slow down in the dense parts. Shift gives you finer control exactly when you need it.
Learn the patterns. Each enemy repeats its shots, so the second time is easier.
Questions
Does it save my progress? The game has no saves; each run starts from the beginning.
Does it work on a phone? It needs a keyboard.
