I've played EspGaluda the most of these 3.

All 3 of these have very unique scoring. Ketsui is probably the easiest to understand but the hardest to master.

Dimahoo has an incredible scoring system of collecting items - this is such an amazing game and is in my top 5. Absolute BOSS music as well.

Ketsui gets very difficult at stage 4 and playing aggressive is key.

Espgaluda is really intense for scoring, but man, I've played the tits off that one already. I don't want to fight Garra anymore :lol:

Dimahoo is just too fucking manly for me, straight up. hard for survival, fucking monster of a game for score. If it were the only game we'd play for a month, a miight consider it, but there is no way I can learn item drop routes to complete sets and get enough runs in to come out with something good, in one week.

Ketsui seems like a nice middle ground. You can squeeze some nice points out without completely memo'ing the game, and it really shows nice progression. Plus, I've never even seen stage 5, and would like to change that.

So, my vote goes to Ketsui!

I hope it's Ketsui, so that way it'll force me into finding how how to score in the ensuing madness. Plus, now I have a console port, so no MAME.

This is not going to be pretty. Just based on the fact that you know all three of these games so well already I am 100% sure I am going to be no match for you dunpeal. #intimidated

Picked Ketsui only because I'm least familiar with it. I know my way around Dimahoo and especially Espgaluda, but why not try something new from Cave too?
