Shoot Em Up
Here we have all the games in the Shoot Em Up Section.
PC Engine HU Card
Shoot Em Up
Giger inspired blaster needing no introduction. A must have for any shooter fans. Many a joypad has suffered under the extreme pressure of R-Type Bydo’s bosses! Levels 5-8 of the arcade mammoth.
Playstation
Shoot Em Up
Packages up two of the most iconic shooters with the embryonic end boss in R Type and R Type II. Needless to say both look a treat on the Playstation and their old school mechanics are still present, yet soon command the respect of their students.
🏆Brilliant!
Brilliant Switch
Shoot Em Up
What more could we possibly add? Once the Saturn was the only system on which it was possible to sample this masterpiece of programming, unless you managed to track down the ST-V Titan motherboard. And Treasure got the Saturn performing veritable cartwheels in terms of graphical boundaries which are pushed into the outer stratosphere. But just as much time has been spent on the play mechanics with a highly original weapons system. Sheer class on the Switch for all to savour.

Cult developer Beep is appropriately drawn to this distinctive looking shooter that harks back to the cel-shaded original for its inspiration. The look really makes it stand out from the crowd and will no-doubt be fondly recalled with those familiar with its predecessors. Sometimes spelt Radilgy.

Playstation
Shoot Em Up
Conversion of the much heralded Seibu Kaihatsu coin-op that never relied on cheap tricks or gimmicks, just simple play mechanics, hardcore level structures, a riffing soundtrack and good old fashioned high scores awarded for collecting medals. The weapons can be powered up but there are only two to select along with two supplementary bomb attacks. Pure arcade shooting action.
Switch
Shoot Em Up
There is a beauty in two players shooting the daylights out of all and sundry in tandem as the background gives a near 3D perception of depth with giant turrets and lunar landscapes. The soundtrack truly rocks: a very important factor in shoot em ups to keep the adrenalin pumping and the eyelids from blinking.

Famed Fighter Jet Blaster Raiden IV gets a Mikado Game Centre remix with various modes and selectable ships plus a soundtrack so full of guitar riffs you’ll end up playing on a knee slide, if the projectile hell doesn’t break you first. Superb execution from a thoroughbred shooter stable that keeps on giving.

Raiden has always had a Top Gun battalion of dedicated followers and the love is reciprocated to its core crew by Moss in this fest for the retinas to try and absorb. The multi-directional scrolling adds an extra element for gamers to get to grips with, as if they didn’t have enough on their plate with the projectile hell. Yet there are plenty of nods to the series rich heritage, including the ships. So let the upbeat tunes keep your adrenalin pumping and trigger finger firing.

Moss excels under the weight of the series history taking it to Mach speed whilst respecting the ships and attack meters of the much-loved plane-based shooter. The hardware permits for new dimensions of bullet hell and its a good job for You Tube to be able to assess later levels, such is the pitiful progress Genki has made thus far. A fine title even considering the excellence attained in part IV that tips its wings to those that have served bravely before.

Shoot Em Up
Adopts the 3D style of the Mega Drive version in this continuation of the predominantly 2D series with a rich heritage. Visual splendour in game and in the seamless anime cut scenes will full voice actor cast. The control system does take a wee bit of getting used to, but other than that its business as usual for Cotton on her witch’s broomstick.
