As a novelty retro experience, 70s-style Robot Anime Geppy-X offers some laughs but it's simply not that entertaining as a shoot 'em up. đ¤
Viral Reload EX can be an enjoyable shmup if you like the idea of mastering a series of bite-sized waves but it can also feel too fragmented. đĻ

There's a lot of fun to be had with HYPERWIRED's intricate mix of gameplay mechanics that makes its twin-stick shooting core gameplay blend with a constant juggling act in a very unique way. It takes a while for everything to click but once it does, you'll have a good time. đ
Rhythm Heaven Groove is a super-fun time with its simple gameplay that's impressively challenging and oodles of content which is all set within such imaginative and colourful scenarios that it's a constant joy to play. đļ
