| | Scrolling shooter - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Scrolling shooters are a type of video game, a subgenre of shoot 'em up. |  | | Being shooters, weapons are one of the most important aspects of these games, and most feature a huge array for the player to use. |  | | Almost all horizontal scrollers view the player's avatar from the side, and present the level in cross-section, such that the player appears to be flying 'through' something, such as a landscape or a mothership. |

| | All Game's Genre and Style Guide |
 | | In the early history of video games, shooters were the most popular genre; in 3D games, the shooting gameplay dynamic has been integrated into the game mechanics of other game genres such as simulation, strategy, action and adventure. |  | | Shooters involve two primary activities on the part of the player: shoot enemies and avoid being shot. |  | | The Side Scrolling Platform game generally involves moving from left to right and jumping on platforms that are magically suspended in the air. |

 | | Well, 3D has proven to be quite refreshing to the shooter genre; still, there’s nothing like a harder-than-nails session of an R-type or Darius game to remind us just how fun a shooter can be. |  | | Radiant Silvergun is a vertically scrolling 2D shooter by Treasure, the renowned 2D action game company responsible for Guardian Heroes on Saturn and some past 16-bit titles. |  | | arius Gaiden is listed as a 1996 game, and as time goes on and I play catch-up on all the shooters I've missed, I find myself going back to Darius Gaiden and appreciating it more and more. |

 | | Also this game has jammin' tunes all throughout. |  | | With NO SLOWDOWN and actually FAST action, it really impressed me. While the play was similar to many other shooters I've played on other systems, the addition of Mode 7 effects in the graphics helped to set it apart. |  | | I almost didn't realize Space Megaforce was on the SNES the first time I played it. |
