Recently I’ve been looking into expanding the number of shmups in my library.
Which games should I prioritise getting? Any that I should avoid?

I’m tracking sales on dekudeals for the moment but I did get copies of Raiden IV (which is definitely something I enjoy), Ando Dunos II ( still can’t beat the boss rush to unlock the last levels) and GreyLancer.
I’ll probably pick up Strikers 1945 II this week since it is on sale.
I’m just patiently waiting and also considering grabbing some physical copies of games that I’ve seen for sale on local marketplaces (Sophstar and Mushihimesama).
@bbbhltz , some sweet choices. Glad to hear you’re enjoying yourself 😸
I just grabbed Andro Dunos 2 digitally as well. It was just too good of a deal.
Shmupdate:
GreyLancer (oldie but a goodie, too tempting to play on easy mode with rewinds so replay value is lowish, but was still very enjoyable.)
Crisis Wing (love the graphics, good difficulty levels for near-beginner.)
Radiant Silvergun (what the hell were they smokin at Treasure!? Even on very easy this is going to take me at least 25 hours to beat using every life/ship I can get. Probably double that! In the first hour of play I went from “well this is garbage” to "oh, I see, you just need to put in the time and effort and then it’s awesome.)
Still haven’t finished the boss rush on Andro Dunos II so those extra levels will be a mystery to me…
R-Type Dimensions EX is on sale right now, so I’ll probably buy that tomorrow.
