Okay, one more recommendation tonight. Noticed that Radiant Silvergun is 60% off. One of the best shmups ever made. Treasure's first swansong (they thought it might be their last big game), and excellently remastered too. You have seven weapons available at all times which level up as you use them.

After reading this I found Bitsy and made a game on my phone (mostly) while on holiday (mostly). Play it here hanamigi.itch.io/oh-it-is-wet Will later host it on my own website as well. No money. Thanks @mtrc.bsky.social you made (?) me make a game after a long time.

Inside a dark concrete tunnel curving like the inside of a torus, the walls are segmented in square panels each set with a distinct hatch. Some but not all have hinges while some are obscured with tattered cloth. A few hatches have inviting handles or knobs to pull them open. A woman in white robes pauses to peer down through an opening after removing the plain wooden board covering it. Bathed in light from below, she comfortable rests her foot on a narrow wooden plank propped across the corner of the opening. The concrete below her is thick offering only the narrowest view of pale blue from the viewer's perspective.
