Mushihimesama is Now Available on Steam

MEGURO KU, TOKYO, JAPAN – Nov. 6th, 2015 – CAVE Interactive CO., LTD. in association with DegiGames are proud to announce Mushihimesama (“Bug Princess” in English) is now available on Steam. The game, along with the v1.5 DLC, will be 25% off and also comes with a free copy of the OST as a launch day special.

CAVE’s entry to the Steam platform also marks a new initiative to reach out to their global fanbase and share the excitement of “bullet hell” gameplay with a new generation of players on PC.

Mushihimesama is a vertical shooting game set in a beautiful fantasy world.  Huge insect-like creatures called Koju roam the forest outside the village of Hoshifuri.  When Reco’s people fall to a mysterious sickness, the young princess decides to leave the village and meet the God of the Koju, who may provide a cure.  Riding her faithful Golden Beetle friend Kiniro, Reco must traverse the wilds, braving the hostile landscape and the aggressive Koju beasts on her journey through the Shinju Forest. It is the definitive shooter from the pioneers of the “bullet hell” genre!

Choose from several game modes:

  • Normal Mode: A faithful port of the original arcade version, designed to be as close to the original game as possible.  Offers a strong challenge to veteran players.
  • Arrange Mode: A remixed version of the game with different enemy positions and shot patterns.  You start with maximum firepower and defend automatically.
  • Novice Mode: A version of the game tuned for newcomers and relaxed game play.

Additionally Mushihimesama V1.5 mode is available as DLC. V1.5 is an alternate game mode with a remixed soundtrack and new mechanics. Previously, this mode was only available on an extremely limited basis, but now it is available to every player on Steam!

The energetic and inspiring soundtrack from composers Manabu Namiki and Masaharu Iwata is also available as an OST DLC for those who love to bring their bullet dodging tunes on the road.

Mushihimesama is now available for PC on Steam for $14.99 (25% discount).
