[danmaku](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bullet_hell) aka bullet hells are a type of [shooting game](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shoot_%27em_up) that feature massive amounts of bullets on the screen (danmaku being a romanization of 弾幕, literally "barrage") that the player must dodge to survive.  
they are notoriously difficult, but fun, especially if one can get into a [flow state](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_(psychology)), which will allow you to maneuver skillfully.  
here are some of my favorites, divided by developer:
