Clear River Games arcade action

If you want quick reflex challenges, these releases from Clear River Games let you dodge dense fire, aim carefully, and time jumps across bright space and side-view stages.

Many of these Clear River Games releases revolve around fast arcade shooting where you steer a ship or soldier, avoid incoming fire, and pick weapons for each threat, as in Truxton, Batsugun and Zero Wing. If you want a change of pace, Gimmick! 2 and RUSHING BEAT X: Return Of Brawl Brothers shift the same focus on timing and pattern reading into jumping puzzles and close-range fights. You stay in short, intense stages that reward practice, careful movement, and learning enemy habits.
