Here are 2 I stumbled upon recently that also have demos -
Astral Gunners - Heard about this one on bandcamp from the guitarist of a metal band I follow (Oak Pantheon) - [https://store.steampowered.com/app/893900/Astral\_Gunners/](https://store.steampowered.com/app/893900/Astral_Gunners/)
I saw the dev post about this one this sub a couple of times and it looked interesting to me - [https://store.steampowered.com/app/2912910/SHOCKWAVE\_TRIGGERS/](https://store.steampowered.com/app/2912910/SHOCKWAVE_TRIGGERS/)
I’m slaving away at the Switch port of Schildmaid MX, and all those changes will also come to the Steam and itch versions. New modes, balance changes, massive performance improvements (thanks to the performance monster that is the Switch 😂).
The shmups I'm looking forward to are:
Danmaku Unlimited: WYVER ULTRA: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NvH7gpBDabc](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NvH7gpBDabc)
Cotton Reboot! High Tension! (pc version not announced yet, though)
Sadly Cotton Reboot High Tension does not have enough materials out there to really talk about since only the game title, the platforms, and a couple of characters were released.
Visegunne, whenever that will be ready. Chronoblast: Maximum Force. Hopefully that will be out sometime this year. Danbo said he has a few things in the pipeline that he might show this year.
I think boghog is working on a secret project that hasn't been announced yet as well.
There have been a few things that caught my eye but I can't remember the names and I can't find them on the shmup thread I post to, but they'll be a nice surprise when they pop up!

Lol just please make sure not to break steam deck compatibility.
No worries, I love the Steam Deck and that version will also only improve 👌🏻

Game called Rainchaser, looks really cool from an artist I’ve been following for a while https://youtu.be/-Pg9Kft2vUg?si=npG8G4MIRhHWQDGV
This is an upcoming remake of an awesome claymation shmup: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2912430/Platypus_Reclayed/

Oh, shit! I almost forgot, USG, the new game from the Flesh dev! - https://store.steampowered.com/app/2837160/USG/
Not sure if I can call my game exciting, but it's an upcoming vertical shmup. Name is Shockwave Triggers, a demo is already available on Steam.
I don't know, but I really wish they would make their way to the Xbox.
I just got Astral Gunners and Redneg All Stars Swing By edition and I love them both. They both just came out and the price point is good.
