            Gal*Gun (ぎゃる☆がん Gyaru Gan?) is a Japanese rail shooter Bishōjo game developed by Inti Creates and Alchemist and released on January 27, 2011.[1] Originally only for the Xbox 360, a PS3 port with additional characters and PlayStation Move support has been released on February 23, 2012.[2]

            A sequel titled Gal*Gun: Double Peace was released for PlayStation Vita and PlayStation 4 in Japan on August 6, 2015 and will also be released internationally.[3][4]

            Story

            Tenzou, the protagonist, is a student who is accidentally shot with several Cupid Arrows by an apprentice angel, Patako. The blessing from the arrows makes Tenzou irresistible to the opposite sex, transforming him into the most popular boy in school for one day.

            The catch is if Tenzou is unable to find his true love before the effects of the Cupid Arrow wear off, he’ll be destined for a life of loneliness.[5]

            Gameplay

            Gal Gun is a rail shooter, with the player walking through the school - As girl after girl runs towards the player trying to profess their love via hand-written notes or screams. Armed with "pheromone shots", the player keeps the girls at bay by shooting them - making them drop to the floor in dizzy ecstasy - while trying to cultivate a romance with one of the four main female leads.

            The shooting is broken up by "action events" similar to that of a boss battle, as well as a doki doki mode ("heart pounding" in English) where the player has the option to zoom in and stare at one particular girl he fancied.[5]

            The developer also added a panic button that switches the action for a retro-looking game, with authentic animations and sounds. This is referred to as a Mama kita gamen or "Mom arrived screen".[6]

            A sequel, Gal*Gun Double Peace, was released in Japan for PlayStation 4 and PlayStation Vita on August 6, 2015.[10] Noting the praise of the first game received from players outside Japan, Inti Creates have announced plans to release Double Peace internationally.[4]

            Mighty Gunvolt, an 8-bit styled spin-off of Inti Creates' other title, Azure Striker Gunvolt, features Ekoro from Gal*Gun as a playable character. The game was originally released for the Nintendo 3DS in August 2014, while a PlayStation 4 and Vita port, titled Gal Gunvolt, was released on August 6, 2015 to coincide with the release of Double Peace.[11]
