Paul Connor arcade shooters

If you enjoy tight arcade action with narrow dodges and point hunting, this collection gives you vertical shooters, shot-absorbing combat and light seasonal platforming to try.

Many of these titles ask you to thread small gaps in heavy fire and turn near misses into points, with Astro Fighters, Astro Fighters 2 and Eagles of World War 2 forming the core of that close-dodging shooter style. You can also switch to something different with Energy Fighters and its system for soaking up shots and firing back, plus lighter breaks like Flappy Bat 2 and Snowman Saves Christmas for timing and jumping. Expect short runs, quick restarts and systems built for practicing routes and improving your score.
