DESCRIPTION
SHMUP is a 3D vertical shoot'em up written in ANSI C, heavily inspired
by Treasure's classic Ikaruga. Originally created in 2009 by Fabien
Sanglard, the game features a custom 3D engine with OpenGL rendering,
skeletal animation (MD5 mesh), shadow mapping, bump mapping, and particle
effects.
The game offers intense arcade action across multiple acts with various
enemy types, boss encounters, and a unique "ghost shot" mechanic where
special projectiles track and pursue enemies.
