Einhander

An absurdly hard (at least for me who was like 9 at the time) sidescrolling shooter. A classic arcade game. You had to beat the whole game in one run with a limited number of lives. You had different weapons you could equip, I think you could equip two at a time or one with both hands (hence "Einhander"). I don't think I ever beat this game because it was too hard but I had fun challenging myself getting through even just 1 or 2 bosses in the game.

I'm bumping this up because I actually did like this game a lot. It was too hard but it was gorgeous, cool, and fun. Man just all the different weapons and the insane bosses alone make this an all-timer.
