Which rail shooter should we add next? Only 10 games in the index are tagged rail so far, among them Night Striker Gear, M2's 2025 return to Taito's Night Striker. #shmups shmupindex.com/game/night…

In 1978, Midway brought Taito’s Space Invaders to America, which became a huge phenomenon and the first real breakthrough hit in Midway’s history. #Gaming #RetroGaming #Arcade #MidwayGames #Shmup #STG #Shmups #RetroGames #ArcadeGames #GameArt #Photography #Art #GameDev #IndieDev #BookSky #PromoSky

Every once in a while, a single game comes along and rewrites the rules for an entire industry. In 1978, that game was Taito’s phenomenal arcade hit, Space Invaders—and Midway was the one who brought it to America. This game was a huge phenomenon, and it marked the first real breakthrough hit in Midway’s history. Suddenly, this Franklin Park company wasn’t just another arcade manufacturer.

What made Space Invaders so different from everything before it? For starters, it introduced something players had never really experienced: open-ended play. Up until that point, earlier arcade games relied on fixed timer clocks that kicked you off when time ran out. But with Space Invaders, as long as you had the skill to survive the marching alien grid, your quarter kept running!

Which shmup soundtrack do you still listen to away from the game? One title is plenty. Pictured is Technosoft's Thunder Force IV, a Mega Drive game from 1992. #shmups shmupindex.com/game/thund…

Which fixed-screen shooter have you played the most? Space Invaders started the style in 1978, and the index has about 70 of them now, Galaxian and Phoenix included. #shmups shmupindex.com/game/space…

[💙M] Not sure if we (Rin and I) like Psyvariar 3 tbh, it's a super unforgiving game with very few Mistake Forgivness resources Or maybe we're just spoiled by playing the other Psyvariar game, ie. playing as Saiva Ria in Cotton RWY #Shmups
