I've been playing Cotton lately. Started with Cotton 2 on the Saturn, it's very good. I recommend it to everyone with a Sega Saturn.
Camden Reed
There was a PC version, holy shit.
David Hall
Bruh, how did you not know? It's the ultimate port of the most recent arcade version. It's actually pretty good.
Liam Reyes
it includes the entire arcade mode, a new cs mode (that has a new ship, Murakumo) with three new boss types: 4 crabs, two with a single huge claw and two with evenly sized claws 2 blue ocean slugs, some kind of ai thing that looks completely unlike the other bosses one dunkleosteus, it's great thing tier, both in size and armament does not include the dlc, which has playable ships from ther taito shmups and sega shmups, including space harrier
Easton Smith
I'm downloading it right now. Sounds awesome.
Jaxon Long
Cotton Boomerang is super lewd!
Benjamin Jones
Was Touhou the worst thing to happen to the shmups genre?
Andrew Johnson
Yes.
Connor Kelly
this ost is absolutely god-tier
It was as influential to SHMUPs as Painkiller to FPSes.
Sebastian Howard
Shmups? Don't you mean STDs (ShooT Dems)?
Dominic Bennett
This meme is never going to catch on.
Benjamin Allen
What did touhou do?
Tyler Cooper
Yes
Cooper White
Nothing and everything. Kill all lolis.
Hudson Martin
So, as you may already know, vaping requires 1 (or sometimes 2) hands to be off the keyboard for about ~5-10 seconds while I'm taking a rip, which happens about once a minute. During this time I'm usually forced to be AFK in a corner or somewhere relatively safe. This means that I basically can't do anything for about 20 seconds of every round, which is a huge portion. How can I better change the timing of ripping one so that it doesn't significantly affect my games? Should I take a rip at the beginning of the round and again towards the end or not spread them out?
Also, can this same technique be used with bong/other drug rips?
Samuel Howard
Gunbird 1 and 2 are better in every way. Better controls, better stages, better bosses, better music, better mechanics, and better lolis.
Colton Powell
You magnificent motherfucker. I had played this game at a firends house a loooooooooooong time ago, and had completely forgotten the name. Thanks mane, I am going to see if I can get a copy
James Nguyen
That is Kat torrents that was just taken down right? Damn, I wish I had been in this thread a little while ago. Oh well, I'll find a copy somewhere
Jaxson Gonzalez
Touhou scoring is fucking annoying.
GRAZING WAS A MISTAKE
Carter Garcia
I've been playing Batrider and there are other characters from other Rizing games that crossover to it like Battle Garegga and Great Dimahoo. What are the other games?
Mason Evans
Is the Vita version of that new Darius Burst game good? Should I pre-order the Asian English Caladrius Blaze PS4 release?
Joshua Howard
I also have a general question. how do I get better at doging without having to play a stage a thousand times in a row. I am playing this indie game i-2000 and all the enemies are fast as fuck and they destroy me in One hit.
HOW DO I GIT GUD AT SHMUPS IN GENERAL?
Robert Bailey
What's wrong with grazing?
Eli Murphy
Too milk-heavy.
I'd rather just speedkill the boss and move on.
Ian Gutierrez
The Vita version is the only physical version of DBCS, so if you want a SHMUP to play in bed or just don't want to deal with DRM, get the Vita version. However, the display screen of the Vita is a bit too small for AC mode's extreme 21:9 aspect ratio and might result in text or details being hard to read, which isn't as much of a problem on PC's with higher-resolution monitors.
Psyvariar would like to have a word with you
memorize the stages don't waste credits if you accidentally made one mistake try placing limits for yourself, first you will No Miss No Bomb this stage. or you will only use a set amount of bombs for that stage, you will only use this many continues for this stage, and so on. Try to set the bar higher. PRACTICE
Matthew Reyes
GFW had a good graze mechanic
Thomas Price
lol, please don't actually. The English "Shmup Community" needs a serious purge already.
Gain, Chitta, Miyamoto, and Bornham are from the Mahou series and then you have the four Garegga pilots as well. The remaining character Carpet is either from a Raizing game that was never released or is an original character just for Batrider.
Dominic Adams
She made a non-playable appearance in Kingdom Grandprix before Batrider.
Jason Diaz
Consoles are DRM, you fucking retard.
Ethan Gutierrez
I'm guessing this is a the scrub killer. Not sure how I'm supposed to dodge these. Getting far away doesn't help. Making a sharp turn at a 90 degree angle from the direction they're going doesn't help. Maybe I'm not using an ability I don't know about?
Jack Bennett
any piece of software that isn't free as in freedom is DRM
Mason Ross
I recall dodging them by going forward in a diagonal direction, or something like that.

I'm surprised how nobody has made a multiplayer online version of Double Dragon with a functional lobby or matchmaking.
Infact, why has nobody took any NES/SNES game and made it online for the PC?
Cooper Hill
Anyone ever play Viper: Phase 1? It used to be one of my favorites. Probably nothing too special but it was an arcade machine at the local bowling alley so it will always hold a place in my heart.

James Cox
Reflex SHMUPs with randomized enemy shot patterns and behaviors are superior to memorization-based SHMUPs in almost every way. The 1 way memory-SHMUPs are better, is that they make for trippier screen savers.
Bentley Mitchell
I wouldn't have ever gotten into shmups without touhou, as much as i prefer other games over it today
Jace Morales
What are you doing?
Isaiah Stewart
It's one of the few shmups with a slow ship that I actually enjoy. Dying while your ship is moving at a snails pace is the most infuriating thing, I need to go fast.
Tyler Martin
Fuck off gook.
Jason Perez
Takumi/Capcom pls port Mars Matrix DC to computers.
Jose Harris
What's wrong with Prometheus? He was one of the best in the west.
Jordan Gomez
Which Shoot' em-ups can I play on my toaster aside from Raptor - Call of the Shadows, Tyrian and Jets 'n' Guns?
Landon Wilson
Buy a Saturn and 360. :^) Besides that, any STG that doesn't use polygons should be fine.
Also Restraint of Zero Idinaloq Layer Section 1-3 (Rayforce/Raystorm/Raycrisis, yes they're on PC) Zugya DX Creature Jungle 16/256
Ethan Collins
I've always wanted a thing called tuna sashimi
Hudson Rogers
I am so shit at shmups, but I love trying.
What are the best titles for two player?
Anybody have a good friend they like to play with or compete against?

Twinkle Star Sprites.
Don't need to be very good (or even at all) to have a lot of fun with it.
Jace Gutierrez
Touhou is pretty hard. Just getting into Touhou starting with 6, keep dying.
Adrian Brown
Can someone give me a complete Run down of all Star solider games ?
Jacob Flores
I love this shmup way to much.
Jaxson Anderson
You're da bes
Oliver Sanders
I don't mean the old games, i feel like we need more Shmups the involve mechs.
Jason Turner
Can somebody explain what this is supposed to mean? I've only heard complaints about the fanbase in passing and I've never really seen any issue with it myself.

I'm getting better at Cotton 2, mastering the grab and chaining up some really heavy combos. I'm loving the feeling of the game getting easier, and I love how the game encourages risky play by making grab such a useful function. I just killed Satan and his last fireball hit me right as the killing shot landed. What a rush.
Carter Wilson
bump for this
William Taylor
/agdg/ here, can I shamelessly shill my shmup? Released on Steam 2 weeks ago, there's a free demo too.
It plays differently from the other shmups I played, maybe someone here will be interested.
Oliver Nguyen
Soldier Blade and Star Parodier a best.
Anthony Cooper
the only game worth for turbo cd
Mason Turner
looks kinda amateurish though I know that feel, here's what I ended up with after slaving three months away in Game Maker (music and boss design obviously not mine)
Nathan Hernandez
What about Rondo of Blood?

Touhou fans and fans of non-Touhou shmups don't get along.
Lincoln Walker
Do Touhou players still exist? Figured they'd have moved onto better STG by now.
There's still 2 hours to go, and the demo was actually pretty decent.
Jeremiah Edwards
PS1 shmups List?
Gavin Brooks
Einhander Harmful Park
And I think that's it. The rest are better on Saturn or MAME.
Jayden Bell
What said and
R-Type Delta Raycrisis (MAME is arse for 3D games and the PC ports is probably an absolute pain in the ass) Starfighter Sanvein Gamera 2000 X²:No relief (euroshmup as fuck but worth a try)

Practicing Raiden IV: Overkill, getting a little better every time.
Fucking thank you
I've only had some weird alpha version installed for about a year
