Shoot 'Em Up or shmup games are a subset of shooter games where the player continually moves forward while waves of enemies enter the screen. Both shooting and dodging are critical to advancing. See also Bullet Hell.

A type of game where the player builds defensive structures to stop waves of enemies from reaching and destroying their base. Towers can be equipped with many kinds of weapons, but generally are unable to move. Resources earned by defeating enemies allow for more towers to be built.
