Grind Stormer, aka V・V, is a vertically scrolling manic shooter with gorgeous pixel art graphics and an upbeat FM soundtrack. Developed by an all-star team at the legendary Japanese studio Toaplan, known for their stellar shoot ‘em ups.
They're here and we couldn't be more delighted! Toaplan Arcade Shoot 'Em Up Collection Vol.4 has landed on Steam and GOG, featuring heavy hitters such as Truxton II, Grind Stormer, Dogyuun, and Twin Hawk. We’re also launching an Ultimate Collection with all 16 games for the unrivaled Toaplan experience.
The Toaplan PC project was announced back in August 2022, and the circle is now complete. At Bitwave, we take great pride in our collaboration with Tatsujin, aiding them in continuing the Toaplan legacy making games like Dogyuun available in home versions for the first time.
