I played the demo. I’m feeling it might not be my thing. It is definitely a neat game with a lot of character, and humour.

Largely, it’s a competent horizontal-shooter that’s closer to late-’90s arcade STGs than modern bullet hell. The remaster smooths the rough edges with rewind functionality, rapid-fire options, quick save, a CRT filter mode, and achievements.
Geppy-X’s combination of being reverent to a fault, but skirting needless additions is what makes this remaster work. By focusing on preservation over reinvention, the remaster ensures that Geppy-X remains exactly what it always was: a wonderfully earnest love letter to 1970s super robot anime.
70s-style Robot Anime Geppy-X wasn’t just a shooter with anime cutscenes. It’s an entire super robot series that was packed onto four PlayStation discs. A quarter-century on, the gameplay is mostly solid, but it’s the animation, voice-work, and hilarious extras that make this a recommendation for fans of classic mecha anime.

‘Geppy-X’ Switch Review: Brimming With Super Robot Nostalgia
Overall, this Geppy-X release makes a once-rare PlayStation mecha game accessible to new players, especially with its all-new localization. The game is still fun to play, if a bit simple and easy for a shooter, but the sheer passion and super robot-infused nerdiness still make this worth getting.
