Intelligent people such as myself conduct our own research to avoid falling for any traps that have been laid by the Jews and trannies. If you were smarter, you would have naturally ended up on the same path. This is how I discovered Covid 19 was a hoax, the vaccine was an Israeli plot for profit, and that in Commiefornia, you've gotta be asleep to believe it.

As it pertains to shmups, I used my superior intellect to achieve the maximum possible score in Karous - roughly 3.2 billion points. Copy monkeys are still trying to wrap their head around the insane tricks I innovated.

these games were designed for 29 inch arcade monitors in tate mode sitting right in front of you. to get the equivalent screen space on a 16:9 pc monitor in standard yoko mode on a vert, it would need to be like 43 inches. of course you cant see shit in a fucking 27 inch yoko setup, its like playing a game on a fucking postage stamp. unfortunately thats exactly what most emulating people seem to do

Not much to get started, but you'll want to learn as you go if you want to have decent freedom to make what you want.

I think a beginner level programming course is a nice place to start and get your feet wet, but even just working through some tutorials online would be a great way to start learning (I did a little of both).

There's an old "shmup engine" for gamemaker made by a dude who used to frequent the systems11 forum. Gmosse. Something between a template and an engine, contains most of the boring stuff like options menus and shit already set up for you so you can start editing stuff right away and having fun. Would recommend looking that up if you do get into shmups in GM.

theoretically there's a drag and drop that is robust enough to make a shooter. basic options for "move this fast" "create this projectile" "blow up when you hit this" etc
if you wanted to make something more complicated you would probably switch to coding though. depends on whether you want to make a fun little thing for yourself or a big wide release game

Are you speaking from shmup experience? Have you 2-Alled every Strikers game? I've taken classes in advanced game system design, so best you listen.

I'm probably a broken record when it comes to this, but: you can dislike games, but try to at least reach that conclusion though experience and actual knowledge.

The level designs are better than Final for the most part (maybe due to Final being in the shitty PS2 'cinematic' age), though I prefer finals stages to a lot.
The only issue is effects being a bit too much and being distracting.
Game looks amazing once you enable the HQ textures in the ini file on PC, which is a failing it isn't in by default but pretty par for the course for the course for Japanese devs in PC. It looks good on PS4 too apparently.
Almost every checkpoint in the game is excellently designed (exception is on stage 2 r-typer and harder difficulty); I can't think of a game where they're better designed (Though it helps it has speed selection rather than speed power ups)

Not a big fan of games where you try to recreate nearly the same route and movements each run you do. Same issue I had with speedrunning the idea is to follow your step-by-step plan over and over. I don't mind specific plans for bosses or mini-bosses, but let me improvise and and adapt freely everywhere else....

shmup threads are always full of /vg/ rejects who got banned from actual shmup forums.
it's nothing but shitposter that based their whole personality on playing "skill-based" games except they will never be as good as japanese superplayers so all they can do is save-state "practice" and copymonkey like crazy, and of course, the thing they actually spend the most time doing: shitposting and doxxing/spreading personal info about each other.
It's easily one of the most autistic sides of 4chan besides bronies and furries. They were a big part on the decay of /vr/.

>> No.8177949 [DELETED]

this is right except for the fact that they're vg rejects, not really, they were on vr first and have been there for years

I dont have anything worth living for.
My life goal so far was to have enough money to buy and complete video games among other childish hobbies. My priorities are messed up. I am behind on a personal development and maturity. I am severely sexually frustrated and my only experiences are with prostitutes, some who were among the worst encounters in my life with massive suicidal letdowns after meeting them.

Yeah, well, it doesn't matter if they were on /vg/ or /vr/ first, they're rejects from the actual shmup community, which is why they're banned from actual shmup forums and why they spend a lot of time seething over them and posting screenshots of literal whos who can afford to buy shmup stuff like PCBs. ("but muh you don't play them!" cope is also a classic)
And they absolutely did not keep their autism on contained threads, the jarpig memeword forcing was everywhere and some of them are still trying to force it around other threads.

The laser plain sucks. In Darius old and new ver, you should just stick to the triple shot and avoid upping your power. In Extra you should upgrade anyway and just grit through a bad stage or two since you need the wave by the end. For laser I find it good to have a slow auto, or even just tap, because the shot limit for it is rough.

I'm not saying he's wrong to say it looks like a mobile game, that part is true. Although honestly I don't get why this particular shmup is getting so much heat for the graphics when most other modern shmups look just as bad/cheap.

>why this particular shmup is getting so much heat for the graphics
because nobody cares about shmups even among the "community", except for this one because it's from a popular series
also I guess people expect it to have a bigger budget because once again it's from a popular series (whereas you don't expect indie trash #9383 to look good), but it looks like just another cheap game

Thread is almost done but was anyone alive or old enough to remember if this genre enjoyed a lot of popularity back then?
