Brings what grabs you about Shoot 1UP: good gunplay, a sci-fi setting and combat with precise timing.

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.

RefleX

Shooting and gunplay

A Japanese indie shmup where you weave through dense bullet patterns and use sharp reflexes to tear down huge enemies. As the second chapter of the ALLTYNEX trilogy, it delivers short, intense arcade action in a sci-fi setting.

Ultratron

Shooting and gunplay

Ultratron is a frantic twin-stick arcade shooter in the spirit of Robotron 2084, where you play the last battle droid blasting waves of killer robots. Neon retro visuals, driving sound and upgrades between levels make for a hypnotic flow.

Zero Wing

Shooting and gunplay

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.

Madrobot X
