These character portraits are attractive. As you defeat certain numbers of enemies, the stage progresses, and the girls lose bits of their clothing. The girls in Waifu Uncovered act as giant wallpapers in the background, with the action playing over the top of them as it scrolls across various parts of their bodies. They’re playing it for the increasingly-naked anime girls, and as far as that side of things go you can instantly tell that all of the development resources and budget went into that. Of course, none of that matters because no one is playing this thing for the gameplay. In short, if you ignore the backgrounds (we will get to those shortly) Waifu Uncovered is entertaining enough for what it does, but it’s so amateurish that it would not deserve to be a commercial product. I’m by no means concerned with framerates in most of the games that I play, but I know it’s important (very, very important) to the SHMUP genre in particular, so that needs to be noted. Most critically, in the later levels, where you’ve got a fully-upgraded ship mowing through really massive hordes of enemies, there are even moments of slowdown. The screen fills with bullets and enemies, as you’d expect from a SHMUP, but there isn’t the precision patterns and interesting boss battles that come from the better examples of the genre. As far as the SHMUP action goes, it’s exceedingly simple and the enemy designs are those kinds of random pictures of cat faces and flying poo emojis that you’d expect of a Game Maker student project. To make no bones about it this is a cheap game. To stop beating around the bush, Waifu Uncovered is strip SHMUP, and while it doesn’t go quite as far as you can with the PC version there is, in fact, plenty of the nudity you’d expect in a strip game. Publisher eastasiasoft certainly deserves credit for somehow making that happen. A thing I never expected Nintendo to allow, in this state, onto the Switch.
