The trick to this game is that it gets harder as you progress. So if you suck you can stay on the low ranks. Then as you get better and clear them you unlock the higher ones, which means MORE SPEED. The game is VERY fast. Then there is the super tough Zone mode…But it keeps being fun all the way.

Literally git gud. The RNG largely only presents itself through randomly spawning zakos at the side of each screen who can only run at you and kill you with contact damage. If you keep moving forwards while shooting the shotgun forwards as well, you can counteract them for the most part.

VelocityX2 is a half shump/half runner that puts emphasis on speed and perfection while still retaining enough leniency to avoid it being complete bullshit, and I really dig it. I recommend you play it for short bursts at a time and not be a retard and play 5 consecutive hours to avoid two week long headaches though.

What difficulty?

Well I don't doubt you've probably spent more hours on the game. Then again, it sounds like you may have a burnout, but each to his own. Idk, I found it pretty entertaining casually playing. I mainly enjoyed it due to the bullet absorb/charge mechanic + music. Also tried some local coop with fried and had fun.

I'm not really new to shmups either (or bullet hells for that matter) either, but I found Ikaruga entertaining.

>Returns the remake

it's the sequel released in 1994 and ported to saturn in 1997. I don't think anyone has touched the elevator action IP since SE did that weird Elevator Action Deluxe which looks miserably dull. Returns is the ideal realization of an arcade hit from the early 80s. It's the culmination of two generations of arcade, action game design and combining it with just enough flashiness to go hand in hand with improving the game play.

>id, I can all but guarantee I'm better than you and thus have superior insight into the game's shitty rigid autistic scoring system.

Practically every shmup scoring system ever is autistically rigid due to the fact that memorizing routes for a good score is an inevitability, else your score would be highly dependent on RNG (flamingoes) which would negate the idea of score being a measure of your own competence at the game. Even in a shmup with a lot of chaotic factors there will always remain one single most optimal path. I think you're just poor at articulating what your actual problem with the game is.

Any of the Ogre Battle games, especially Ogre Battle 64 and the OG Ogre Battle. Personally, I prefer the Playstation vesion because you can go into top-down mode meanwhile you can't do that on the SNES original, but play it anyway you can. IT'S AMAZING


0a61d4  No.15747889

>>15747750

Ogre Battle games are only challenging if you really impose some strict limitations on yourself. Particularly in OB64, for instance you have to commit to making your army at least a certain size, to roughly equalizing your units' levels, and even to maintaining alignment and chaos frame.

To be quite frank I'm probably better at scrolling shooters (including Ikaruga) than everyone else on 8ch. But whatever helps you rationalize your poor ability to evaluate (especially form arguments about) game quality I suppose. My high score in Ikaruga may not be any sort of world record score but it's decent enough for a single-credit clear at 22 million that I think I have a good enough grasp of the deeper mechanics of the game to make statements about them with some weight. What's your high score anon?

Here's a bunch

>ChoRenSha

Simple Shmup that's not too far gone into bullet hell tism, not too bullshit score wise either, fun to play casually and just as fun to play for score perfect gateway drug to score tism.

>Tales of Alltynex

Series of shmup that all deviate from the generic bullet diarrhea stuff everybody else seems to pump out

KAMUI gives you a bullet erasing laser that's fairly limited in duration while forcing you to use your secondary attack for scoring purpose which worls of the same gauge as the laser so you can't just abuse it if you want a decent score, it's not very modern system friendly but worth a play, there's also anotehr ship type but it sucks dick to play with.

RefleX gives you a shield that can return some projectiles back to the sender but lets physical objects through so you have to play in ways that you wouldn't really play otherwise if you want a decent score.

Also SPOILER: agaisnt the last phase of the final boss after he kills the 2nd KAMUI craft with his fuck huge purple laser you need to release shield after you reflect his satellites attacks because that causes the reflected projectile to home in on the boss, there's no way you could ever figure that out except by accident and it even contradicts the mechanics change brought on you by the stage 7 sidegrade you get

ALLTYNEX 2nd just straight up gives you an energy blade and homing attack on top of your regular firing stream and you have to balance your use on all 3 to get good score it's fairly hard to wrap your head around at first but very satisfying once you do, and then there's ship B which is somewhat different while still keeping the same base idea.

>Fight'N'Rage

Pretty much what happens when some guy mixes a bunch of stuff from older beat'em'up and adds a few fighting game mechanics on top of that, the difficulty level ramp up incredibly fast and pretty much anything above hard mode is actually really fucking hard at-least at first but unfair and insane are still bullshit regardless

Fairly fun to get better at with tons of content to get through, plus you can beat up furries till they explode and you get points for it.

>Assault Android Cactus

Recent top down shooter that takes more after the shmup genre than the other, which translate into handcrafted levels and a score system that actually requires some involvement on your part, only real downside is that the game is fairly easy unless you're going for more than a clear unless you're trying to clear the "endless" mode which is doable just really fucking hard.

Last update kinda fudged around with balancing and scoring to make all char more viable for scoring which you might or might not like, but you can alwyas get the older one if you like that more

>N++

The one and only platformer that's geared towards getting gud which also happen to not be a complete autism fest like IWBTG fangames or indieshit like Super Meat Boy.

Brigador. Isometric sci-fi shootem up with great visuals, sound and lore. I can spend hours just reading the descriptions to vehicles and weapons.

Not a twinstick, but glorious tank controls you have a campaign which is missions with preset loadouts. The meat to the game is Freelancer mode:

>Pick your pilot (difficulty)

>Pick your vehicle

>Pick your weapons

>Pick your utility (emp, smoke, cloak, shockwave to level nearby buildings/enemies)

>Pick your mission

Have some gameplay though the muppet takes two cannons so it's a bit dull in weapon variety, it shows off the visuals well enough.
