A short but fun bullet hell shooter, Red Fluxion is an overlooked gem. Like others, I discovered this during Kongregate downtime. The levels have a satisfying difficulty curve, and though some bosses seem too tight or too chaotic to realistically perfect, you're given so many lives that the game is less about winning than it is about excelling and enjoying. There is a lot of potential here that could be developed with more and more balanced upgrades, as well as more interesting stages before the bosses. 4/5.

These song are from Nintendo games, but they are heavily remixed. The level music is Corneria from Starfox, and boss music is from the last stage in Super Mario Galaxy, I believe. Not sure what the menu song is though.

Pretty cool and hard, the only difficulty I saw was been Boss ships do instant-fast movement, sometimes went trough my head and killed me, WTB if u dunno the movements of the boss u have a chance of 90% to get hit

Truly the most challenging Bullet Hell I've ever played. Instead of looking for flaws in an infinite sea of bullets, it was more like I had to dodge all of the moving obstacles while trying to actually hit the boss. I'd appreciate it if the ship moved a tad faster thoough and that my progress would actually be saved when I play this game from the Kongregate Downtime page -__- had to start from scratch when I got to the main page.

@Game Maker, could you upload the Boss Theme onto Youtube or put up a link for it? I want to be able to listen to that badass tune when fighting other enemies in other games.

WHY this game has not badges.
Cool bosses, cool upgrade system (TO INFINITY AND BEYOND!), bullet hell as f**k, a lot of fun. I did final boss twice because of it's awesomeness.
Will be ever more fun if you put 2 upgrade points if A rank: because i don't feel like taking A rank for nothing! :D
5/5, hope that more games like this comes from you.

This loaded as the "Kong is down for a bit, so play this." game. I love the beefed up minimalist games like this...But the music implies one thing which is not provided in the game...Why can't I do a barrel roll???

Dude the music for the levels before you fight the bosses is a remix of the first starfox game for the SNES! The music is from the Cornaira level! That's pretty cool!

How much HP does the final boss have? My guess?
Eleventy billion.
Great game. The levels themselves were pretty easy, but the bosses MORE than made up for that.

I confess that I am a fan of awesome bosses, and that I usually only play action or shooting games for the bosses. I am glad to say your game has not dissapointed. ( I hope you will realise that this comment will be focused on the bosses) Favourites of mine were the triple shield one, where only one ship was unprotected, the laser cage one, and the last boss. Most attacks have a certain strategy to avoid being hit. One negative: Getting hit protects your ship for a few moments and in that time you can clear a path through a difficult attack. (Oh by the way, I got a D on the last level!)

I think that faster ship speed should have been a passive upgrade. Why? I keep on dying because my ship was far too fast!
This isn't to say that this game is bad. In fact it's amazingly challenging. Simple - but yet beautiful - graphics make the point very easily on what is going on. Neon graphics should be a more common thing.
Great music but you should shuffle it up by, on the second half of levels, switching it with a remix of the first Axelay level's music. That would please any hardcore shooter fans, myself included in that group.
Keep up the improvement zestygames, I'm looking forward to an even more frantic sequel.

I thought, this game isn't THAT hard, bullet heaven was harder than this. then i got to the fourth boss. P.S. laser cage boss blew my mind.

why isnt the game working for me anymore?! I played it for a few days no problem, then one day I get a gray screen with some red and white thing at the top right.

I rarely ever comment on Kongregate, but this one merits some affection. User Mashadaar phrased it perfectly. Those boss battles were really something else. Mad props. I've played a LOT of shooters, but rarely (if ever!) do I actually enjoy battling those 'laser cage' type bosses.
One nitpick: the player's hitbox - where is it and how big is it??

@neotoxic slightly wrong on the music for main level mate it's actually a remix of the corneria theme from starwing still good either way :D

Good music, fun gameplay. An enjoyable interpretation of a tried and true formula. 4/5. Review in full at http://gameolosophy.com/games/action/on-flash-games-24-red-fluxion/

Eternal jedi, It's a song from starfox. Remixed and edited. You probably heard it on brawl; almost no one plays starfox anymore.
