Shoot 'em ups / 2D Scrolling Shooters

Love Hyakutaro Tsukumo music? Then you might enjoy from Hyper Duel to Devil Engine soundtracks: https://youtu.be/AwVx2baqJqg https://youtu.be/KOHVGGz5KEg

Not a huge fan off it but death smiles gothic art and is probably the best one I played https://static.zerochan.net/Death.Smiles.full.208919.jpg

Same employees started with Orca Corp., then later founded Toaplan, then that split into four developers: Takumi, Gazelle, Raizing/8ing and Cave Co. Ltd.. Then Cave caused a splinter developer Tanoshimasu to be established and develop Aka to Blue. https://youtu.be/XDtMFjeCAXM

Thanks man. Deathsmiles is one of the best in the horizontal section of the genre. Blazing Star is another highly-rated example, which is the sequel to Pulstar. https://youtu.be/2kguJdOMjuI

I didn't know death smiles was a 2d scrolling shooter until I put i the game in my dad's xbox 360 I thought it was a visual novel game what possessed me to buy it the beautiful gothic art I enj9yed playing it none the less ^^

There's even a sequel and a mobile version: https://youtu.be/nFBL90KJmhU https://youtu.be/qobIzGHj8xU
