Terra Cresta, or The Cresta Series is a series of Shoot 'em ups by Nichibutsu, that started with Moon Cresta in 1980.In each game, you pilot a different ship. The main thing each ship has in common is access to various power-ups that increase your firepower, but often render you more vulnerable due to the increase in the size of your ship's hitbox, and getting hit will cause you to lose all upgrades and revert back to the basic ship. The drawback here is that Power-ups have to be acquired in a certain order, which can make things a little frustrating for some.The game received multiple ports, with the most recent one being Arcade Archives: Terra Cresta by Hamster in 2018 for PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch.A sequel, Sol Cresta, by PlatinumGames (yes, that PlatinumGames) in collaboration with Hamster was released on February 22, 2022 for PS4, Switch, and Windows PC (via Steam). | |

Unstable Equilibrium | |
| Terra Cresta (Video Game) / int_17975d1b | comment |
Unstable Equilibrium: The Power-up system is a bit unforgiving. Stay alive and you'll keep collecting parts to power up your ship and reach phoenix form, easily tearing enemies a new one. Keep getting hit and your game will be over quickly due to being stuck with the basic ship. | |

| Terra Cresta (Video Game) / int_62259825 | comment |
Nintendo Hard: As is many shmups of the time. You start with a weak ship that carries a peashooter as its only means of attack, enemies like to attack from difficult angles, and while that five-form ship that turns into a phoenix for some seconds is cool, it takes only two hits, the first one destroying two of your ships, to get reverted back to the basic ship. | |
