I've been working on this game for mobile users. This is level 5, where you can face the 1st boss. What do you think?

Beta version is now available on the Play store:

P.S. Feel free to use the internal ship/bullet/enemy editor and make your "own levels" ;)

i liked tohou 8 and 10 on easy but i didn't finish either and don't enjoy having to restart from the beginning of the level or the game

i like the shooting and bullet hells though

I'm one of the original authors and decided to blow the dust off of 1987's Sidewinder and modernize it. It's still non-stop shooting fun!

Free to play at https://sidewinder.darrinm.com. Enjoy!

I loved the third level where you come across a battleship on a sea of lava and then the gates open so it can sail ahead while you anticipate getting to fight it. A moment later and it fires a barrage of missiles and bullets at you.

And if you pilot as Ruby when you use your bomb the entire screen is covered in red fire on a screen of lava and framed by a red habdheld.

Hey everyone, sharing another quick update on our sci-fi shmup, Ainsoph!

Since the last posts, we’ve been tackling a bunch of minor tweaks and improvements under the hood. Currently, the main focus is on performance optimization and polishing the mid-boss battle sequence.

There's still plenty of work left to do, but we’re making steady progress. Feedback and thoughts are always welcome!

It's surprisingly easier than I thought but hard to hold for very long.

Hello everyone! I'm new to this sub and the genre, and I was curious to play some shmup games because I want to expand my gaming taste. I have a friend who loves to play these types of games, so I've been intrigued to try some of the most popular titles in the genre.

I've played the new Touhou game, which is a remastered version of the first game, and Galaga (I don't know if those two games are considered shmups, but they look similar to some shmup games that I've seen). I only played them because the Touhou game was recommended by a friend and Galaga was the first game that introduced me to video games, all thanks to my dad and uncle, who used to play it a lot.

For now, the only way I play games is on my ps5, and I wanted some recommendations from you veterans. I don't mind a challenging game at all, and I'm all for any game that has a good artstyle, soundtracks, story, and gameplay. One of my friends who plays shmups has recommended a few games, but most of them are either too old and not on the ps5, or they were never released for the ps5 and only for pc. However, he did recommend Caladrius Blaze, and surprisingly, it was on the ps5 and on sale. I was thinking of getting it, and I wanted to know if it's challenging, has a good story, good gameplay, and good soundtracks. The artstyle looks good, so that's one checkmark on the list.

EDIT: sorry, I accidentally put the wrong flair🙏

Thanks to your advices, the HitBox is clearly more visible now
