Too me, there are two types of bullet hell. Fun and bullshit. Fun is fair challenge caused by the actual bullets and not by limiting the players ability. Getting upgrades throughout to help dodge bullets and dish out more firepower makes the game fun. The games Frantic and Frantic 2 are perfect examples of fun and fair. Here are some links to try them out if you haven't already. I highly reccomend you do. http://armorgames.com/play/2894/frantic http://armorgames.com/play/4443/frantic-2 Then there's bullshit bullet hell games. Shit tons of bullets, limited player abilities, low speed. These are rage quit games. And they are not fun. If you rage quit, your not having fun, and your game is shit. The player has to feel like they messed up. Their death was their fault. If you die because of bullshit, you don't have fun. Bragging that you will rage quit is NOT FUN. I will say that again. IF YOU RAGE QUIT, YOUR GAME IS BULLSHIT (Hey that rhymes) Here`s an example of a bullshit bullet hell. Play this to see what NOT to do. http://www.andkon.com/arcade/shooter/bulletaudyssey/ Now some reccomondations for this game. This falls in the middle for me, depending on the difficulty. On the easier difficulties, its fun. On the harder difficulties, its bullshit. The number one thing to change to make it fun is to PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD TAKE OUT THE LIVES. Lives are OBSOLETE. They where designed to make ore cash in the arcades. Computers are not arcades, and lives make this game lean towards bullshit. If you can, implement an upgrade system that runs off of points, so i would want to kill the enemies and not to run away, as i often do. Also, it would be great if the enemies had better designs. The bosses are the highlight of this game, as is the case with a lot of bullet hell games. Fast paced and intense. Unfortunately, the levels drag a bit, and their the worst part of the game for me. So please add enemies that have less health and shoot more bullets. Thank you for reading this, and please add the changes i mentioned.

Unnamed Bullet Hell Shooter
Unnamed Bullet Hell Shooter (UBHS)
This is a game where you control a ship through a level with a lot of bullets. This is not an easy game, especially at the harder difficulties. Expect to die a lot.
There are currently only one level, but more will be added soon. However, just one level provides quite a lot of playtime due to the difficulty.
You can also play the game from my site: http://alfredandersson.net
