Brings what grabs you about Let Them Come: good gunplay, combat with precise timing and a sci-fi setting.

Zero Wing

Shooting and gunplay

Shooting and gunplay

A 1982 arcade classic in which you pilot the Solvalou fighter through vertically scrolling waves of alien enemies, shooting air targets and bombing ground ones at once. It was a pioneering title for the shoot-'em-up genre.
