F22 Raptor

F22 Raptor!

The psychology of shmups is immensely difficult to figure out. Exactly what makes one scrolling shooter better than another isn’t always immediately obvious.

It’s not speed that’s the key, and neither is it clever weapons or specific types of ships. Most likely it’s a fresh and intelligent combination of these factors, and some have it, while others do a nosedive into the scrolling floor.

Regrettably, F22 Raptor seems to belong to the latter category.
