Even with no background, it's clear that the game is more of a traditional shmup that happens to have 360 degree firing rather than an arena shooter. The enemies all come from the top of the screen, so like a traditional shmup, it's generally the area you need to focus on (the ability to fire to the sides and backwards is more of a convenience if you decide to get up near the top of the screen).
