Ghost Grab 3000
Ghost Grab is a great arcade title, about catching and popping ghosts after the apocalypse. What starts with a simple grab and dodge mechanic quickly becomes a fast paced, bullet dodge game, where the players must use emps, nukes and dashes to wrangle a horde of spirits. Really fun, quick game. Much more forgiving than Switch N Shoot for beginners, too.

Game Review from 30 Minutes of Play
Reminding myself if I should revisit and if you should purchase.
ELEVATOR PITCH: Bullethell Megaman
LIKED: Easy to learn, hard to master gameplay. Love the pixel art and chip-tune throwback.
DISLIKED: Starting levels can get tedious causing some early mistakes in what would be perfect play.

I have only played for a short time so far, but am really enjoying the game. I can see myself sinking many hours on this to climb up the leader board.
Update: This game is dangerously addictive.

Space Mayhem
A well-calibrated space shooter. Several ships to choose from have distinct characteristics, this adds replay ability. Very enjoyable as casual entertainment. Or, prepare to swear if you wish to make it to the leaderboards.

Very cheap game that’s a lot of fun! I’ve been having a blast playing it and trying to beat my high scores. If you’re looking for a game that’s easy on your wallet, then you should try it out! Fun to compete scores with friends too.

Switch ‘N’ Shoot
Switch ‘n’ Shoot’s my kind of candy.
The kind of candy that has a fine layer of sugar on the outside, and a thick, highly acidulated core. Except it’s a game, so what’s exploding in my mouth is nostalgia. Well, you get the idea. At least I hope so.
The soundtrack alone makes me feel like I’m playing Gradius again.
When it comes to the gameplay, it took a moment to get used to the 1-button control, but it works really well, and makes for a fast-paced, nervous gameplay I feel a large part of arcade retro developers have trouble putting together these days.

In memory of Pilot NOUPH, first to reach the elusive Sector 7.
I think I stumbled across this one entirely by accident while searching the market for N++ trading cards. The name caught me, the concept sounded pretty neat, and when I plugged in to have a go, I had a grand old time. Arcade as a business may have faded from the spotlight, but there’s always gonna be some remnant of what those machines gave us. In Switch’s case, it’s simple controls and a difficulty curve that starts cool, then ramps to red hot. Your single button casual tapping becomes a series of frantic clicks as you try to keep your cool while dancing right next to a bio-laser and the suddenly firey side of the screen. Then you die and your constant hype-man and weird face maker of a commander reads a single-line obituary commending your efforts. Slam another quarter in! You’ll get further next time.

Furious Angels
FA is a minimalistic, short and sweet arcade dogfighting shooter that is so much more than what you may think. Somewhat easy to get into, surprisingly hard to master.
Gameplay
Furious Angels (FA in short) is all about… blowing stuff up. While trying not to die. All while babysitting the helpless mothership. And of course, get a good looking score. Oh, and there’s no campaign, no story, no upgrade grinding. Only explosions. And scores.
Your goal - face the endless hordes of enemies that want you and your mothership dead. Losing either is a Game Over. Stay alive as long as you can, get that big big combo, but your fate is sealed before it all begins. You’ll lose. As for how, it’s up to you to decide.

I don’t write many Reviews.
I think most Games do not deserve, or need my opinion.
And I usually don’t feel well as an advertisement writer.
But this one game is different. For me, this is a hidden Gem.
This is the only game i play everyday for 5-10 minutes. Since more then a Year.
No other game got me hooked like this. I think I can say I like it a bit.
Maybe it is just a me-thing. Maybe it appeals just to my personal taste.
It is arcade-y, and in a way that makes it great … I love the Explosions.

ALPHA CENTAURI SPACE FORCE
Astoundingly Awesome Shoot Em Up, Iv’e still got a lot of practising to do and i am only on the first main level, what i have seen so far is very impressive, with great smooth Joy-Pad controls which also makes you practise because you have your main fire weapon and a target you also can control with the right analogue stick when selected to destroy out of reach enemies and a super weapon, you can change your speed as well on your ship to make it go faster or slower, Totally mind blowing graphics and very good music (Drum & Bass, Dub-step style), The more I progress i will keep adding to my review, Overall i highly recommend this game with lots of potential even in its early access stage…lots of practise and lots of fun…Buy this game if you love shoot em ups..Excellent work..Love it :)

The game made me feel like I was in the 16-bit era again. With a cool challenge, it’s a great shmup with 3 selectable ships. I recommend.
