If you havent downloaded Sky Force Reloaded it'll probably give you the most bang for your buck. I've put on average about 2-3 hours for each shrimp so far but i put over 20 hours into Sky Force and haven't finished it yet. If you just want a good classic skrimp go for one of the strikers games!

Blazing Star is definitely among the easier shrumps, but with only two lives, no bombs, and no extends, getting all the way through is surprisingly difficult. Mad props to you if you manage to get through after only 2-3 hours with the game. Hell, if you do it after 20, I'd say you're pretty skilled.
I'd say of all the shrimps currently available on the Switch, there's no doubt that Blazing Star is the best investment. However, if you want something that really challenges you, Pulstar might be a better bet. I find the checkpoints and tough recoveries frustrating, but it's also a great game.

Lol, just downloaded and played a round on my lunch break! Game is pretty sweet! I like the feel of it more than Sol Divide so far!

Finally got my game on it's just as fun as I remember and I still suck at it like I remember too. The unlocking of Ayin still works as well (go to the "?" and push up x3 down x3 and up x7) I like his "bomb" attack but I play as Miko more often.   heh.

Do you control more often with the analog or with those directional buttons?

How about the single joycon detached as a controller, you're not really into that setup?

Every now and then I'll use a single joy con when I'm playing portable and games that use tate it's kinda fun but the novelty wears off after a while.
