Emulation is your friend, QuickSciFi. MAME alone will open up untold numbers of shmups to you, including some that were ported to the DC and Saturn (Soukyugurentai, Mars Matrix, Giga Wing, etc.).

Genesis/Mega Drive next (for the site's sake).
Darwin, Lightening Force, Twin Cobra, BHB, Fire Shark, Gley Lancer, Sagaia, Empire of Steel, Burning Force....
Throw in your vote QuickSciFi. Remember if it's Darwin most of us will be emulating.

I understand. I'd go with Fire Shark then; in which case, we'd be killing two birds with one stone
. Remember?

Vapor Trail repeat; giant monster tanks hate me. Killed the first one, then got killed dodging the second one's rapid fire. Got killed again working my way back there; hence the game over before the said 'boss' (Are they bosses? Christ, I hope they are!) battle:
It's a pathetic score, I know.

Yeah, everyone just put your highest score of shmups here. On less its genesis game, you'll have to create a new thread for it.

Recca
4,376,558 21:56:40 ALL
Done last night.
I was playing with a fast clear in mind, but I just found out the scoring system has many more details than I thought.
Will try to bump it closer to the Coop's later, even though the deadline has already expired.

So uh, what's the next game for this competition, since Recca ended yesterday?

Give us a push, you're the victor.

Since we've got a few more members poking about the thread than I'd expected perhaps it's not too soon for Afterburner or Space Harrier.
But again, victor's prerogative till we get fed up with your winning.
@tb16 = Where's your Rekka score, it was your suggestion?

On Recca - it's over, I know, buut.... after getting 4,6M in 21 minutes, I played around with the bullet soaking and the bomb bonuses and got 5,052,332, however with 29 minutes.
Does anybody know if there's any limit to the timer?
On a general note, are all scores going to be in this same thread?
Is anyone organizing the results in tables or something?
