Pro Gear is CAVE's first bullet-hell shooter - it is a horizontal masterpiece. Scoring is not as intricate as later releases but it is certainly there. Again, masterful music and sprites.

Deathsmiles is another CAVE hori - you can clear the game with 20 mil or get to stage 6 with 80 mil - timing your hyper is imperative to scoring well. And again - this soundtrack is just glorious. I love the ability to shoot in both directions and the very forgiving hitbox.

Sorcer Striker is the first in the Mahou series of games (Sorcer Striker / Kingdom Grand Prix / Dimahoo). You'll notice a few of the characters from other series here. The game is very difficult including the hardest stage 6 or 7, can't recall, i've ever played, which includes iirc 6 separate brutal boss-fights.

I went with progear. Sorcer Striker would be more of a safe play, but I want to get out of my comfort zone a bit. Deathsmiles... yeah, as much as I love the scoring, I'll end up doing less runs because I know it'll be a full run every time. Kinda in the same boat as Galuda.

Kinda scared of Mike's prowess with this one, but hey, bring it on 8)

Either Cave hori is fine, they do them very well as evidenced in both of these in the poll here.
