Descpription:
DonPachi is a vertically scrolling manic shooter arcade game,
the first game developed by Cave, and released by Atlus in 1995.
Literally the title means "leader bee", but it is also an
onomatopoeic expression associated with the sound of firing guns.
It is one of the first manic shooters.
The player assumes the role of a pilot who is sent by their squadron
to fight their former allies until one side destroys the other, all
of which is a part of a mission to strengthen the military power that
controls each side. The player flies their selected fighter over
various terrains, encountering a number of land, sea and air enemies.
The player's ship has two modes of fire: by tapping the fire
button, shots are fired; holding it down produces a concentrated
vertical beam, but also reduces the ship's speed.
