The launch discount is stacking with the current store-wide sale on Steam, making Strania currently 40% off. Probably a price error.

I don't think this has been mentioned yet, if it has, my apologies but I think all schmups are on sale on Steam until December 1.

I picked up Raiden III for $2.50 today.

Since the Vita version of Dariusburst Chronicle Saviors released early, you can actually get it for 10% off using Sony's Black Friday code:

Today is the last day the code works!

Dariusburst PSP (search for ダライアスバースト ) is on sale at the JP PlayStation Store.

If buying through the JP Web store, and you're already buying stuff from your own region's Web store, you'll really want to open the link in a separate browser.

Orange Juice, Siter Skain, Yotsubane, Frozen Orb, and much more developers have steam sales. 80% on Suguri Collection is a steal.

Listed under The Tale of Alltynex. The link to it didn't turn up when searching for the individual titles and only Reflex is on sale by itself.

Additionally, there are a few shmups on IndieGameStand. They might be discounted now or not, but the code ADVENTCAL at checkout should give you 50% off your entire cart. (even if they're already on sale; you can beat a few of the Steam sales in this way)

I recommend Papilio which is unfinished but super cool. Super Cyborg and a couple other good games are up there too - there's a lot of meh indie stuff but it's probably worth paging through as there's a few gems on the site.

I know the guy making this, he's not a regular on the forums anymore but he knows his stuff. Great game even for a WIP. :)

I shot him an email after playing the game since I noticed the Dev forum thread had died - the game's been on a bit of a hiatus but it sounds like he does intend to return to it in 2016. Got my hopes up. :)

I'm pretty sure you only get Steam keys, but that's still a nice deal.

Thanks for the heads up, I was just deciding whether I should get Suguri and Acceleration of Suguri (to go along with the recently released Sora), but with a deal like this it's a no-brainer.
