Well that got my attention. The Shmups thread says Shou scored a copy a while back. Any helpful TNLer care to confirm/deny?
Here's a video of Seta's Aleck64 game Variant Schwanzer.
Stage 1 looks nice, rotating similarly to Phelios but with 3D rendering.
This has a Variant Shot weapon that allows you to fuse with enemies, not unlike G.Darius. A fused enemy can be used as a 1-hit shield, to shoot a sub-weapon, or spent for a special attack. The SA requires full energy (gained by taking items from killed enemies). Enemies killed with a SA are worth 5x the normal value.
Doesn't look bad IMO. Hopefully it's not too far from getting into MAME.

I remember bits and pieces from sites back in the day, looks decent in motion. The ship reminds me of Cybercore with how it morphs with power ups.
Was this a game killed after loketests or something? Looks neat. That "clap" move is very Radiant Silvergun.
