Time for more shmups!
What do you get when you mix two of the most popular classic shmups together? You get
G-Type!
As the name implies, it is a combination of R-Type and Gradius in a very unique game. Every difficulty results in something different and there are several secrets such as a hidden Boss Rush. G-Type is very challenging and worth playing.

Speaking of Gradius, the makers of La-Mulana made a game based on the Nemesis MSX games, an offshoot of Gradius. They have since taken it down, but some people were nice enough to create a Wiki which has every version of the game (in Japanese). You can find the downloads here:
GR3.
There is one thing though... it requires Java Runtime in order to work, so much so that some versions of GR3 require specific Java versions. All of this is on the Wiki.
