I tried to get into so many of these and yet in the end I just kept defaulting back to touhou. Touhou really is the perfect shmup series.

That's a lot of low budget jrpg

Sure, and Tetris is a metroidvania.
Go play Mars Matrix.

Dragon Blaze is pretty damn good.
Undead Skeleton Dragon is the shit.

I played mars matrix for about 15 minutes and called it quits. Sorry, but it's no Perfect Cherry Blossom.

Exactly. It's better. I'll agree that PCB's soundtrack is superior, though.

Anons, who here has played Ikaruga with a buddy and rocked the fuck out of that game?
Also the track in it, Bustutekkai (sp) is sick.

It's more of a puzzle game, but it's fun. I've bought it five times (physically on Dreamcast and Gamecube, then digitally on Steam, PS4, and Switch), clocked a good 120+ hours into it, 1CC'd it a few times. The whole soundtrack was sick, Hiroshi Iuchi did an amazing job. He also directed the game and programmed the level layouts, which is why each segment of each stage has perfectly-fitting music.

I () should also mention, co-op is the only way I can really have fun with the game anymore. Just having fun blowing things up with a bro, throwing chaining out the window since a second player kinda negates it unless they really know what they're doing.

I just got the Aleste Collection recently, overall Aleste 3 is really fun.
Daniel White
I liked it aside from the gimmicks, e.g. that one boss that slowed your movement. GG Aleste 1 is still my favorite one on the collection. (though Robo and MUSHA are my favorites overall, and it's a shame that neither of them were included)

I keep wanting to get into shmups and bullet hells but they just annoy me
>cave is shit outside akai katana
>taito games are way too unrefined and have autism like 'better not grab every medal because fuck you" in darius
>g. rev games so far are the only ones I find fun
>doujin shmups and indies don't have that polish
Brandon Kelly
Play the Psyvariar games.
Also, as far as indies go, play Samidare. It's short but sweet, with a great and lengthy extra stage if you can 1CC the normal mode.

>akai katana
I have never heard anyone talk about this game. Even guwange gets more mentions
Samuel Morales
that's cause akai katana is for real niggas

What about Espgaluda and Dangun Feveron?

>galuda
Could never into its weird systems
>feveron
That one is also pretty fun
Nolan Long
>Could never into its weird systems
To each their own, I guess. I enjoyed the more free-form methods that the kakusei system allowed. While there are some "one true route" bits, for the most part you can throw your own routing at the wall and see what sticks. That and the soundtrack.
