this looks like one of those games made to showcase bad art instead of good gameplay. make a good game if you want me to play it.

When I look for an arcade game to play I'm looking for good
>intricate routing
>cool execution
>really nerdy tech
>replayability where i dont feel miserable playing the first stage again and again
No modern retro throwback covers any of those angles, all of them are gaudy casual crap. avp is an extremely broken game, but also an insanely fun game that covers all those angles. on the other side of the spectrum is ddsom, which also covers those angles, but is more about meticulous planning and perfect OTG loops where if you miss even one your run is ruined. no one, especially not "boomers" are going to play games like those. they want no obstacles and fast gratification.

this is the brainiest beat em up i know of and its fairly hard to 1cc. (unless you play cleric because cleric is broken)

I would NEVER play any beat em for score. They all have terrible scoring mechanics.

Every good shmup has fun bullet and enemy sequences. Silvergun is a little boring, don't you think? And no point during the game am I going "holy fuck that was cool", which is a big problem in something I'm expected to play many, many times. The soundtrack is also abysmal, it sounds like a FF game lol. I also remember the color palette being pretty drab and the art style being blocky and badly textured but its been awhile. All around just bad.
