== Shmup Dev Tips for Aspiring Devs Out There ==
Because there's no shmup dev wiki (charlene pls add gamedev section i want resources)

=== The Holy Trinity of Shmup Design (or what I like to call these 3 as) ===
Consider those 3 rules as absolute musts, especially if you are starting out.
* '''No Player Inertia'''
** For a game that requires reflex-based dodging, inertia equals input lag. And that's bad.
** '''Q''': but i want realism in my game '''A''': Realism rarely equals fun.
** '''Q''': what about smooth movement '''A''': Smooth movement comes from evasion of enemy patterns, player afterimage, option movement lag, etc.
* '''No Forced Damage'''
** There must be at least one way out of a given situation that does not require using limited resources such as bombs.
*** That goes for all of the possible setups when getting into said situation: For example, playing with one weapon type may be easy while the other hard, but none of them should be impossible.
** Some complex games may feature special abilities to assist surviving and/or scoring; only add them after gaining some experience, and if you do, think about what will count as limited resource and what will be unlimited "secondary shot".
* '''Keep the player busy'''
** Never make passiveness be the norm; forced or not.
*** Examples of forced passiveness:
**** Bloated enemy HP
**** Lack of firepower to deal with the incoming wave
**** Any other cases when you just can't seem to deal with a given situation other than ignoring it
**** Dead air
*** Examples of non-forced passiveness:
**** Enemy giving too low threat (such as having limited threat zone) to be aggresively dealt with
**** Any other cases where being passive is the optimal strategy
** Don't know how? Here are some of the tons of methods to do that:
*** Enemy aggression
**** Really fast enemies for attention bonus
**** Strategic choices from (but not limited to) when to kill enemies w/ revenge bullets & shottype changing
*** Pattern dodging
*** Item collection
*** Resource management like bombs and special weapons with a gauge
*** Charge attack timing
*** Scoring setups that may include a few from above and/or other stuffs
*** ...and so on.
*** Just be careful not to add too many mechanics without real depth. (You're not gonna make a [[Hellsinker]] wannabe for your first game, are you?)

=== Other Good Tips ===
(Todo: Pros out there feel free to make suggestions in the discussions)
* Go read [[Boghog's bullet hell shmup 101]]; it serves as an introduction to making shmups.
* Popcorns must not tank more than (player firerate in Hz / 10, 1~2 less if fast) hits.
* When including multiple shottypes...
** All of them should be useful. (No OP or downright useless)
** Each shottype should be unique enough to have low role overlaps with other types.
* Don't use world space movement for player. Always make movement speed consistant for all directions.
** If normalizing diagonals isn't doable, at least make orthogonal & diagonal speeds consistant for each set.

== Shmup Dev Tips for Aspiring Devs Out There ==
Because there's no shmup dev wiki (at least the owner's considering adding a section for that in this wiki)

=== The Holy Trinity of Shmup Design (or what I like to call these 3 as) ===
* '''No Player Inertia'''
** For a game that requires reflex-based dodging, inertia equals input lag. And that's bad.
** '''Q''': but i want realism in my game '''A''': Realism rarely equals fun.
** '''Q''': what about smooth movement '''A''': Smooth movement comes from evasion of enemy patterns, option movement lag, etc.
* '''No Forced Damage'''
** There must be at least one way out of a given situation that does not require using limited resources such as bombs.
* '''100% Kill should always be possible unless you have a good excuse'''
** Bloated Enemy HP is never a good one: Having to pass a wave because you can't destroy the enemies isn't fun at all.
** Be careful with enemy counts too for the same reasons as above.
** Some of the good excuses:
*** Hi-Speed Enemies (Makes player pay attention & memorize their locations to maximize their kills)
*** Giving Strategic Choices (Examples include but are not limited to a set of enemies that spawn suicide bullets which you can just pass)
