Crimzon Clover, it's easy but very pretty.

Espgaluda, Dodonpachi (regular ass Dodonpachi), and Mushihimesama from Cave's library are good and easily accessible for beginners.
>>
>>387872273
Does Metal Slug count as bullet hell?
Anyhow, Gradius (and Parodius, by extension) is a generally good series.
>>
Crimzon Clover

>>387872586
eww that's not a little girl

I very highly suggest Raiden Fighters 2 and Raiden Fighters Jet. They're easy to find and quite fun.

Dragon Blaze and Gunbird 2 are also very fun, though Gunbird 2 is fairly easy, and Dragon Blaze can be brutally difficult.

I also recommend Cave's whole library, with DDP DoJ Black Label and Ibara being two very different style of shmup that are both excellent. Guwange is very interesting visually, which will keep your interest for a while, but it's not their best game mechanically.

What? Gunbird 2 is quite a bit harder than Dragon Blaze.

That looks terrible, turn your monitor.

We reached the point where people like you are more annoying than actual Undertale fans.

Some I have on Steam:
Crimzon Clover - great
DoDonPachi Resurrection - Only DDP on Steam
eXceed 3rd - i like it
James Town - Widescreen, good for beginners, 4P Co-Op
Jigoku Kisetsukan - free on Steam, Touhou clone
Mishihimesama - very good
>>
Monolith is pretty fun, but it isn't a traditional shmup.
>>
Undertale
>>
>>387872273
Most CAVE games

>>387872370
Gradius is great, but not bullet hell.
>>
>>387873662
Gradius V pretty much is
>>
>>387872913
Had this on my wishlist and completely forgot about it. Thanks for reminding me about that.
>>
>>387873720
On higher loops/very hard mode yeah, but otherwise it's a traditional shump
>>
>>387872913
You might as well get Donpachi. The game rips it off too much to be at least in my eyes considered a new game.
>>
>>387873662
you can argue that 5 sort of is. Has some bullet hell type bosses.
>>
>>387874427
If it rips off anything it's Esprade, not Donpachi. It doesn't matter anyway, a lot of games in this genre are very similar mechanically.
>>
>>387872273
I'm assuming you already played Ikaruga's spirtual predecesor, Radiant Silvergun?
>>
>>387872273
An old classic is Power Strike, especially 2. Fucking fun.
>>
>Not very good at shmups
>Play Ikaruga
>It's fun but have no real desire to really get into it
>Try some other ones like Crimzon Clover and Blue Revolver
>Actually want to get better at them and do stuff like 1cc

I dunno why but Ikaruga just doesn't click with me at all
>>
>>387875048
Because it's a slow, monochromatic, dull, defensive game when you play for survival. It becomes fun when you try to get full chains, though.
>>
Undertale
>>
>>387874646
The first level is a direct rip off of DonDonPachi.

It's called a reference. It's a very different layout anyhow, just similar visuals
>>
>>387875048
dodging bullets is a lot more fun than swapping colours to absorb them

Are there any good bullet hells for mobile?

Space ships > Little girls
Any of these games are a good time OP. There's the Dodonpachi game on steam as well, but it's a little pricey, so it may be worth waiting until sales kick in.

I'm not really into Ikaruga much either. I like the concept, but it just doesn't do it for me. Mushihimesama and Raiden 4 Overkill are excellent though. I wish they'd release more Raiden games on Steam, Raiden 2 is the first shmup I ever remember playing. There was a local Papa Ginos that had a machine there until 98-99'.

>tfw I'll probably never get to own an original Raiden 2 arcade cabinet
>>
>>387877867
Phoenix HD if you're feeling competitive.

Careful tho, Phoenix 2 sucks ass and Phoenix 1 has reaaaaally spotty hit detection.
>>
>>387872830
I've only played the original DDP. What makes DoJ Black Label superior?
>>
I don't know if it strictly a "bullet hell," I'm not too well-versed in the genre, but Astebreed is pretty cheap on Steam and is really fun.
>>
>>387872273
anything by Cave or ABA Games
