Glossary Entry: Bullet Hell
Definition
Bullet Hells are a subgenre of Shoot 'em Up games known for featuring a very large number of bullets on screen at any one time. Often, the projectiles are fired in elaborate and colorful patterns, like a deadly fireworks display.
While games in this genre often balance things by making it harder for attacks to actually hit the player, this is not a genre that casual gamers will enjoy.
