Category:Color-chaining mechanic

Shooting games where enemies have different colors and must be shot in groups, or chains. The biggest example of this mechanic is Radiant Silvergun's chain system, where each chain of three enemies of the same colour increase the points awarded per chain, towards the max chain limit of 100,000. Treasure's other famous shooting game, Ikaruga, also has a similar system with different execution. Shooting an enemy of another color, losing your ship or ending a Stage tends to break the chain.
