Vulgus

Released in May 1984, Vulgus holds the distinction of being Capcom’s very first arcade game. This hardcore vertically scrolling shooter demands that players pilot their craft using an eight-way joystick, utilizing both standard twin shots and a limited supply of piercing ammunition. The game is defined by its unique strategic elements, such as "negative items" that cause enemy attacks to intensify if left uncollected, and a 50,000-point special bonus awarded for defeating bosses using reserved piercing shots. With its relentless waves of enemies and non-stop firing action, Vulgus offered players of the era an intense, white-knuckle experience that left them no time to rest.
