This looks to be a pretty cool thread. I might have to contribute something once I have more time.

I hope someone is planning to do some Raizing stuff, notably Battle Garegga and Armed Police Batrider. I love the hell out of those games but even with playing on and off for several months now, I'm still terrible.

bathroomrage posted:I second this, and I REALLY wanna see someone play the pre-update version of Battle Garegga with all of the drab-colored bullets. You mean the ONLY version of Garegga. E: To add on to your Raizing discussion, Garegga and Batrider are both rather notorious games thanks to their developer, Shinobu Yagawa. In both games Yagawa implemented a dynamic difficulty system known as Rank. Essentially, the game keeps track of multiple elements in the background (shots fired, power-ups collected, lives hoarded, etc.) and upon hitting certain plateaus, the game automatically becomes harder. More enemies, enemies with more health, faster bullets, and so on. The only way to significantly reduce rank in either game is by suiciding. Thus, learning to play either game well means going against some rather common conventions of the genre. iastudent fucked around with this message at 04:10 on Jul 31, 2014 |

I think it's about time for a necro. So there's something I've been thinking about to try to stimulate this thread again. For the last couple months over on Shmups Forum there's been an ongoing community event called Death Roulette. The idea is that each week you roll five shmups at random and get one attempt at each to get as far as possible. There's no playing for score involved, it's all about endurance and a lot of the fun involved is forcing yourself to play unfamiliar games and adapting to them in a short period of time. Thought maybe something like that here may be of interest to some people.
