Yo Shmupers, it’s Vinu! Today I’m sharing my Top 7 Shoot ’Em Ups for Beginners, a selection of shmups that are great if you’re new to the genre, or if you want something more approachable to get started.

Of course, this isn’t the only way to begin, and plenty of great games didn’t make the list, so feel free to share your own recommendations in the comments!

Yet another great video by Vinu! I particularly enjoyed the aside about Ikaruga. Yes, it's a great game. No, it isn't a good introduction to shmups. Ikaruga requires some solid fundamentals going into it, or it's gonna turn into a wall really fast.
