Capcom Arcade 2nd Stadium

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

A compilation of over 30 classic Capcom arcade games from the 80s and 90s, spanning shooters, brawlers and platformers. Modern features like online leaderboards, rewind and extras make these punishing coin-eaters easy to revisit today.

Zero Wing

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

A classic side-scrolling shoot 'em up that became a cult name thanks to the infamous Mega Drive translation and the "All your base are belong to us" meme. Its signature twist is grabbing enemies with a tractor beam and using them as shields.

Galaga

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

A classic arcade shooter where you pilot a fighter along the bottom of the screen and blast waves of insect-like aliens. The tractor beam that captures your ship, which you can rescue for double firepower, gives it its hook.

Astro Tripper

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

A punishing arcade shoot-'em-up where you fly a nimble craft along the surfaces of large side-scrolling platforms and fend off swarms of enemies. It embraces old-school, unforgiving arcade action.

Steel Vampire

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

A fast-paced indie shooter for PC that throws explosive shooting action and clashing metal at you. I know little about it, so this rating is conservative.
