Today I looked it up and I am convinced: #StarFox is a #shmup.
In both #StarFox and classic #ShootEmUps like #RType, the #player controls the same two axes, left, right, up and down. The #game moves you forward automatically in both cases, whether the screen scrolls sideways or into the depth.
A true "rail #shooter" would be something like #VirtuaCop, where you have zero movement #control and only aim. #StarFox gives you full freedom on two axes. The label "rail shooter" is simply inaccurate.
#StarFox is a #3D shmup. That is all.

🆕️ @segaguys video!
Virtua Cop is a pioneer, an icon and a classic when it comes to light gun game, and the Saturn port is an absolute marvel.But is it still as great when played with a controller?

Este videojuego lo conocí en PC, era una gozada jugarlo con el ratón.
Años despues lo pude jugar en Saturn con una pistola compatible.
