Shoot Em’ Ups Are NOT a SIMPLE Genre! | Shmup Topic Video
Shoot Em’ Ups Are NOT a SIMPLE Genre! | Shmup Topic Video. These days, no pet peeve grinds my teeth more than the common refrain that shmups (STG) are a “simple“ genre. This seems to be a commonly agreed on understanding and description of the genre. There’s only one problem with it ... it is not accurate. In today’s video I go over many of the reason why I think youtubers, game journalists, game reviews, and gaming magazines still cling on to this notion that shoot em’ ups are “simple.“ On top of that, I think this ties in with modern views of game design where the game design of the arcade era is outdated and needs to be updated for “contemporary audiences.“ Coming to a Nintendo Switch, PS4/PS5, Steam, and Xbox near you! Modernized, “deep“ and complex shmups, aka euroshmups ha.
Also be sure to check out BogHog’s Amazing BULLET HELL DESIGN 101 document! It will teach you about the deeper mechanics of the genre:
