Daily Check: What shooters are you guys playing ATM?

[prof]

Well, there's no Shooter McGavin in NTM, but the German sure can club it.

 

[SNKNostalgia]

Super Star Soldier with that music!

I just tried this out, it was decent.

Dead End City on Steam

A post-apocalyptic arcade shooter. Collect fuel and dodge enemy fire as you fight back against the evil Scorpio gang. Mixes cars, shmups and themes that would have been right at home in 80's anime and arcades..

This is my favorite thread this week so far. Better than 16 years sealed BY FAR.

Been playing hellhound and blue wings on my x68

Raiden Fighters Remix on PS5 - spent about 30 minutes with it last night after completing RE9.

Seems to play fine to me, compared to my previous experience with the awesome Xbox 360 port. The ships are a little more responsive than I remember, but I really don't understand the meltdowns some are having on the shmups forum over this... although, I think most of that vitriol is aimed at the Switch port, which I'd never even consider getting in the first place.

I'll spend more time with it at the weekend, and if I find anything massively amiss I'll post back here.

Oh, btw, they have done a great job with the sound, it's frickin' awesome through my home theatre set-up... the wife is going to complain for sure when she's back.

I'm still messing around with my X68 playing some lesser known average shmups.

Of all the doujin games I've played, this one is my second favorite... Cho Ren Sha 68k is the best hands down.
But I really really like this game.
Zuyga plays a lot like Bosconian...
The game gets repetitive, but at the same time I can't stop playing it.
Great colors, game plays well it's smooth, and decent mechanics!

Only booted this once, but I was really impressed. Super nice presentation. It really does suck you in to play longer than you initially intend.

Playing some R+R on the x68 another doujin. Love the colors it really stands out visually.

Got a few credits in on Muchi Muchi Pork yesterday at mmsadda’s. It’s one of the only PCBs I miss.

Minishoot' (yes that's the actual spelling) is pretty fun. Zelda level design, twin stick shooter gameplay. Tough but not unfair. Well worth $16 I think.

 

[Tarma]

Having a lot of fun playing Keio Flying Squadron - sure, it's not the deepest of shooters, but its whacky style and soundtrack make this a good time.

 

[Gaston]

Gradius V, best game in the series!

 

[promking]

Batrider!

 

[SNKNostalgia]

Gonna give Tatsujin another go... FML

 

[Gaston]

Had a week off and played through the pc engine soldier trilogy. What a wonderful series, love all of them but Gunhed truly holds a special place in my heart.

 

[promking]

Played some winds of thunder today.

 

[Darkarrow]

Radiant silvergun
Hopefully Pulstar this November.

 

[Tarma]

Prehistoric Isle 2 and Raiden Fighters Remix - the latter is a lot better now they've patched it. I'm still rusty as fuck though.

 

[Tarma]

Finally 1CC'd Prehistoric Isle 2.

That final boss is a pita.
