Retro Gaming’s Most Savage Shooters Just Hit PS5 and Switch
Bullet-hell fans have a serious new test. Clear River Games and City Connection have released Muchi Muchi Pork! & PinkSweets Boosted, two vertical arcade shooters from CAVE, as a digital download on PlayStation 5 and Nintendo Switch.
The bundle delivers non-stop action, eye-popping visual design, quirky Japanese humor and bullet-hell mechanics tuned for modern consoles. Both games are available to purchase on either platform.
Muchi Muchi Pork! and PinkSweets Boosted Bring Bullet-Hell Chaos Home
In Muchi Muchi Pork!, General Pork Fillet arrives from planet Iberiko to turn the citizens of Butaduka City into pig-hybrids. Momo, Ikuo and Rafute fight back on pedal-powered Ketta Machines across five stages of bullet-hell mayhem.
Players master a high-risk Medal Chaining System and fill a meter with parachuting pigs to unleash the Lard Attack. Screen-clearing bombs turn enemy bullet storms into collectible bacon.
PinkSweets Boosted is built on PinkSweets, the 2006 sequel to Ibara. The game dynamically adjusts to skillful play, raising the difficulty as players improve and requiring them to balance shooting with tactical restraint.
Pilots choose from four ships, each with two firing styles, across seven stages. Holding fire deploys the Rose Cracker Shield, while orbiting Rosehips absorb incoming projectile fire.
