ESCHATOS
Developer Qute
Eschatos is a scrolling shooter, developed and published by Qute, which was released on April 7, 2011 for the Xbox 360. Despite the original Xbox 360 version only being released in Japan, it was a region-free release. A version for Windows, published by Degica, was released in 2015. In 2021, Eschatos was ported to the Nintendo Switch exclusively in Japan, and was released worldwide on the Switch and PlayStation 4… From Wikipedia (CC BY-SA 4.0)

60 of 64 · most liked firstSpotted cameos of a pixel art witch that awarded bonus points in the UFO shmup Eschatos. This led to my learning about mail-order WonderWitch game dev kits for WonderSwan. Eschatos dev M-KAI won a WonderWitch programming contest with Judgment Silversword & was awarded a multi-game publishing deal.
unlabelledView post →I bought Eschatos on Steam and I have no idea why it does not run for me. Seemingly no one else in the world has gotten this error specifically with this game. I've done the usual uninstall/reinstall/verify integrity/move to a different hard drive crap.
unlabelledView post →The kids took turns entering the living room and watching me play Judgment Silversword a bit before going "this game looks really cool, I want to play it," so I added Eschatos to their wishlists then showed them JSS on my WonderSwan, if you're wondering about how the Father of the Year race is going
unlabelledView post →Gave Ikaruga an actual go and I can understand why everyone points at it when talking about shmups. The visual presentation is nuts for the time it came out. I'm not sure if any other 3D models game after Ikaruga tried to match it other than Eschatos? I'm still bad at solving color puzzles tho.
unlabelledView post →Eschatos has a "quick restart" option whenever you pause the game, and im shocked that every shmup release didn't follow suit after that
unlabelledView post →Adding one of my favourites to my PS4 shmup heap. Eschatos! Also includes the celebrated WonderSwan game Judgement Silversword, and its buddy Cardinal Sins. Three ace STGs by the mighty Qute!
unlabelledView post →Get both awesome shmups at a steal. Note: They're both mission based with RPG elements. It's not a straight-up action game like their previous entry, Eschatos. Ginga = vertical scrolling Natsuki = horizontal store.steampowered.com/bundle/18992...
unlabelledView post →Took like a week break from grinding Eschatos and suddenly I'm way more consistent at the game lol
unlabelledView post →Area 19 is definitely the highlight of Eschatos for me. I could probably happily play a whole game worth of this type of enemy wave. Maybe I could just play some space invaders lol
unlabelledView post →It's random game Saturday and I've got ESCHATOS! This is pretty much my favorite STG on the 360, a system chock full of amazing STGs. And the soundtrack rules with real Sega Genesis vibes!
unlabelledView post →Always loved how this game looked and sounded, but never really put in the time to learn it. It's cool! Didn't end up clearing, but managed to get a new PB at the buzzer while also reaching the final boss' penultimate phase. Dropping a big chain is a special kind of pain. anyway, play Eschatos 🫵

unlabelledView post →6. Eschatos* A very hype vertically scrolling game with super hyped music. It has the classic "Earth is being invaded my Martians that have taken over the Moon" story. It's like if Space Invaders was actually invented a decade ago instead of back in the day. The enemy ships are very classic.
unlabelledView post →Played Eschatos last night! Cool game. Vertical scrolling shmup but the movement plane isn't tied to screen space, meaning they get to do a bunch of cool perspective tricks. Great enemy designs, and you can't go wrong with a SuperSweep OST
unlabelledView post →Here's the full leaderboard and score tracking chart for Eschatos in the Perth Shmup Club for July 2026! @heavyviper.bsky.social dominated this game for the entire month!
unlabelledView post →I've been playing Eschatos lately, genuinely really good game
unlabelledView post →12. Game everyone should play Everyone should play more shmups, it makes you appreciate tight, arcadey game design. Play ESCHATOS
unlabelledView post →My personal takeaways from doing these grids: Diablo 2 is one of the most evil games ever made EDF 5 is an objectively fun game It is your moral duty to play Wizardry: Proving Grounds of the Mad Overlord Eschatos just a really fucking banger soundtrack Arcanum in IP hell makes me weep every day
unlabelledView post →STGs are truly the purest form of video gaming. Pure adrenaline in entertainment form Haven't played a STG since the year began, been occupied with DRPGs, Musou, Strategy and FFXIV, but yesterday I wanted to play a quick Eschatos run Holy frick, I was shaking. Jittering in excitement. What a game!
unlabelledView post →found a good ass song from a game i never played fired up fl studio in hopes that i could remix it well enough #eschatos #musicproducer #videogamemusic
unlabelledView post →Anything that Yousuke Yasui has composed for (Mushihimesama, Mamorukun Curse, Eschatos, Ginga Force). In terms of JRPGs, might I recommend hit video game Shining Force 3?
unlabelledView post →Unless you achieve a really good autopilot, lapses in concentration will just kill you... That said, I feel like I'm nearer to a 1cc than I thought I'd be considering I'm playing quite infrequently. Eschatos, at least on normal, doesn't seem to require consistent clean play for the whole game
unlabelledView post →Eschatos kicks ass, very cool and fast-paced game with straightforward mechanics that are fun to use and yeah the soundtrack rips beyond belief
unlabelledView post →I think Eschatos looks fantastic in motion, and is especially impressive in the parts where it's able to keep the gameplay and music in sync, but it does have to do more with less, since Qute isn't a big-budget game company to begin with. I don't think low budgets are bad here, though.
unlabelledView post →It's extremely handy. TBH I'd still be grinding out Eschatos if it wasn't for the fact I decided to get Hades 2, but alas that game took my time instead. I do want to get back to it though, I was close to clearing normal difficulty with continues.
unlabelledView post →1. I have a bunch of favorite composer artist. but my favorite for now is Yousuke Yasui 2.my favorite is Stellar Light (Eschatos) and some tracks from the same game, Mamoru-kun Cursed!, Under Defeat and some track and arranges done by him www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hjbm...
unlabelledView post →this game also has really dope use of perspective shifts/scale a la Eschatos if you're into that sort of thing (that sort of thing being incredible video games)

unlabelledView post →Eschatos: Somehow managed to clear my PB on the 3rd boss today lmao Extremely messy run though, was throwing lives away in stage 3 and game over'd very early in stage 4 For comparison, my 2nd best score was on the final boss Score aside I hate moments like this where I feel like I'm getting worse
unlabelledView post →The other thing that annoys me a bit about Eschatos, outside of the points grind for options, and again not really in the game itself, is that the "Normal" difficulty apparently was not what the game was designed around? It was designed around hard? Why not call THAT the normal difficulty???
unlabelledView post →But yeah I like the idea of doing commentary on easy games, easy modes etc. How do you design a game to be easy, can it be done elegantly? What works and what doesn't etc.. Eschatos original easy feels quite instructive in a few ways and I wanna examine that.
unlabelledView post →As much of a VGM enjoyer I am, the games I've played purely because of the soundtrack while knowing almost nothing about the actual game is very few. Eschatos is absolutely one of them though The other one is probably Chrono Trigger (though the frog cutscene was also part of it too)
unlabelledView post →it's actually insane how the best 1-2 punches in shmup history share the same tendency of having the first game have "silver+weapon" in the title (Judgment Silversword -> Eschatos) (Radiant Silvergun -> Ikaruga)
unlabelledView post →I kinda feel like Eschatos is a perfect game
unlabelledView post →Tonight's a night where I remember that the Eschatos Sountrack continues to be one of my favorite video game OSTs of all time Yousuke Yasui they could never make me hate you one bit
unlabelledView post →Then I found out about the games he's worked on, the usual Mamorukun Curse and Eschatos. Eschatos seemed the more interesting *game* while actually being on steam at the time as well so I ended up buying that, but it was mainly for the soundtrack lol. Glad to see the game is also that good.
unlabelledView post →Decided to play a game that I had actually spent money on, Eschatos. Glad I went for it tbh because the game absolutely kicks ass. Honestly didn't have that much intention to ACTUALLY play it at the time I bought it, I actually got it for the soundtrack of all things lol
unlabelledView post →First section of level 4 in #Eschatos can suck it. Seriously most troublesome part of the game I've encountered. Very route heavy. Also, uploaded a new video about my experiences with Eschatos. Made it to Level 6 (starting with 2 extends at level 4) #shmups #stg
unlabelledView post →finished Eschatos, which I think is the only other Qute STG on Steam besides Judgement Silversword. incredible game, think i'd actually put it above Ginga Force which in turn I'd put above Natsuki Chronicles, but all three are awesome. almost 1cc on normal... but... I floundered at the end..
unlabelledView post →That arrangement of "Silver Lining" from Eschatos, with real guitar, is still one of the best for that game. on.soundcloud.com/dL75hYDt4njK...
unlabelledView post →2. youtu.be/YD5VpwF8FXA?... the game is kinda mid (i say bc i've been playing it and it's bizarre that they went from the perfectly paced Eschatos to this) but Yousuke Yasui never misses
unlabelledView post →Designed entirely in MSX-BASIC by then-highschooler Shinobu Hatakeyama, who would go on to make MSX shmups Kyokugen and Pleasure Hearts, WSC shmup Judgement Silversword, and indie darling shmup Eschatos, among others. But this was his very first ever published game! www.youtube.com/watch?v=joQJ...
unlabelledView post →Got a new PB in Eschatos (Original, Normal Difficulty) earlier today! Also made it all the way to the final boss, despite feeling like I was "throwing" in Stage 4 this run! (It's not *entirely* from the Space Invaders part, c'mon now ;u;) If I could just bring a couple more lives into that fight...
unlabelledView post →The game itself is Eschatos, a 5 stage vertical space shooter with 3D environments and a killer ost by Yosuke Yasui The song in the video is Silver Lining from the first areas of the game: www.youtube.com/watch?v=kqv4...
unlabelledView post →Name a game with a 10/10 soundtrack God I wish I could post the full track... #videogame #soundtrack #eschatos
unlabelledView post →Spell your name with videogames Jamestown (honestly can't think of a lot of Js) Undertale (very lazy choice) Disgaea Eschatos (one of the best music albums ever published, comes with a free game) short name privilege?
unlabelledView post →Since I've gotten quite a few 1CC/1-All's during streams, I've been releasing at least one a month on youtube. Sept's 1CC is Eschatos, and I'll have a bonus game next week. youtu.be/4I50LZ3anSw?...
unlabelledView post →A side note, Judgement Silversword is also a very good game. I actually tried it out before playing Eschatos, but at some point I made the fatal mistake of watching a clear of it on youtube and unfortunately the RSI pandora's box was opened for me and I have opted to simply not play it lmao
unlabelledView post →Managed to get a really nice run in Eschatos tonight. I can fee the consistency coming back as well. Even then though the last level is a doozy, and I still have no idea how to do the last boss lol I still can't clear the game even with continues lmao
unlabelledView post →It's funny because it sometimes happens like that during reissues. It was the same with Eschatos, everyone was suddenly yelling that it's a great game while I never heard of it before then.
unlabelledView post →Eschatos is a great and fun game but man does it kick my ass
unlabelledView post →Eschatos is such a pure game. It's so purely STG. Filled with reference and reverence, but never derivative or shallow. Just a pure distillation of classic STG tropes and design while pushing the boundaries on camerawork and setpieces. Such a simple, yet masterful game. It's so good. AND THE MUSIC!
unlabelledView post →Looks like you're more into classic shmups than Bullet Hell, so I'm gonna say: Eschatos. The game was also a strong Inspiration for ZeroRanger as far as I can tell.
unlabelledView post →#62. Natsuki Chronicles (This time on Hard Mode!) Still an excellent game. I started the year by playing Eschatos and moved on to Ginga Force and Natsuki Chronicles in short order, so hmm. Maybe I should try gunning for a hard clear of those before the year ends.
unlabelledView post →5. From the same developer, Ginga Force's first stage theme puts off some big Mega Man Battle Network vibes, and I dig it. I don't enjoy this game nearly as much as Eschatos, and sadly the rest of the soundtrack isn't as memorable, but we got one at least! m.youtube.com/watch?v=gxZI...
