Hmm I know we got Zun and those other doujin devs but what the hell is CAVE;G REV the only "real" companies left?
Takumi,raizing,TecnoSoft,Psikyo,Taito(you know they wontbe making more of them) etc are all dead
Are shooters a dying breed?

I can't remember the two titles that I used to see on arcade..

1. It's about a submarine shootan game.. I think there's a giant boss who chases you from below.

2. A pilot shootan game where you hit every 'STAGE 1 READY' or something.. it'll give you a bomb.

Shooting games don't really have much left to them that hasn't been seen or done. They need to incorporate other things into them to keep people coming back.

Perhaps starting with a story mode in addition to arcade modes. In this era of 映画ゲ, it should only be expected to have a plot that's more than a few lines.

The problem is that the games are region coded. It wouldn't be bad if CAVE was releasing their games on the PS3 instead of the 360, because then we wouldn't have to worry about that.

>> No.3862130

>>3862111
Which is why they're combining genres nowadays into action-adventure-shootan-mmorpgs. Shooters insist on being a purist genre and it's risking dying out like platformers.

It's barely even explored 3d. It's just stuck in old graphics like roguelikes. They might as well make a roguelike dungeon-flying shooter.

No but it stops new fans from finding the genre, I got into shooters due to me seeing a cool ship on the cover(thunder force 3) and thats how it all began its quite hard to gain new fans if you remain exclusive only for 1 region.

There are tons of 3d shmups out there, the problem is that this just gives it a graphical update and the gameplay is still 2D superior.

Otherwise, a 3d shmup that actually utilizes that 3rd dimension kinda goes into rail-shooter territory.

I heard PS3 content approval is based on a sort of "if it doesn't look next-gen, then its no good," also add to the fact that the 360 is less popular in Japan so its more suited to having all the niche titles like shmups and VN's.

For all those worried about the region-locking issue, and if you have a x360, I suggest you pick up this game, not only being one of CAVE's best games, but they decided to make it region free, and depending on the sales figures from importers, may influence them to make all their future ports region free as well.

Sony requires PS3 games to be capable of 1080i
Microsoft requires X360 games to capable of 1080i
CAVE STG released on X360 have 1080i mode where the 320x240 source is scaled by an integer, centered, and surrounded by a high resolution border.
DISGAEA3, a PS3 exclusive, has low-resolution 2D sprites with 3D effects.

I was thinking of making a shmup for the hell of it, but every time I think of something cool to add I realize its already been done. Is there anything you guys would like to see in a shmup that hasn't been done yet? Right now my idea is to center the game around a changing perspective. Make it so you can switch between vertical, horizontal, and starfox views at any time. It would be like paper mario in the way that things that are impassible obstacles in one dimension are clearable in another. Starfox mode is just added in because there aren't enough games like it.

Well, I guess Otomedius sold pretty well. It was just like Touhou though. Meaning that everyone mostly liked it for the music and for fapping to the characters.

I wish I could have went to St. Gradius High School when I was a little girl.
