Topic: Fixed shooter


  
 Shoot 'em up - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A fixed shooter has players only able to control their two-dimensional position on the screen and sometimes the direction they are facing.
A shoot-em-up ("shmup" for short in some areas), is a video game where the player has limited control of their character and the focus is almost entirely on annihilation of their enemies.
Most Light gun games are rail shooters, with exceptions such as shooting gallery games, where perspective remains static.

 First-person shooter
A first-person shooter (FPS) is a computer or video game where the player's on-screen view of the game world simulates that of the character and the gameplay emphasizes shooting.
Many FPS games are designed with a core game engine, separate from the graphics, game rules, and levels.
Sub-genres include the stealth-based game (also known as a "first-person sneaker") and the tactical shooter as well as survival horror games, which use a similar viewpoint and mechanics, but respectively emphasise avoiding detection and team-based tactics.

 Video game genres - definition of Video game genres in Encyclopedia

Quite often the game will auto-scroll, moving the player along a fixed path at nearly all times.
Most FPS's place the player behind a gun or other weapon with the player's "hand" holding the weapon.

 Fighting game - definition of Fighting game in Encyclopedia
The player's viewpoint is not fixed and can rotate and move in any direction, and the characters can sidestep as well as duck and jump.
Fighting games are video games in which players fight each other or computer enemies with martial arts.
Characters in 2D fighters (Street Fighter, Mortal Kombat, Guilty Gear, Killer Instinct) are hand-drawn/digitized and animated sprites, and can move left and right and duck and jump, but in many games they can't sidestep or move 'closer to the screen'.

Real-world testing without such a mechanism in place showed this to be not a particularly big problem, as the cylinders in general had enough stored energy to be able to shoot several balls in quick succession.
