This bullet-hell shooter came out on Steam earlier this month:
It has a 92% score on Metacritic, making it one of the highest-rated games of the year (4th highest on PC, 7th highest overall). And it has a 95% user rating on Steam.
I picked it up not long ago, and it's some of the most fun I've had all year. Bullet-hell shooters are known for being some of the most difficult hardcore games around (which usually puts off a lot of gamers), but this one has a great difficulty curve, slowly easing you into the game... before bombarding you with tons of bullets. It also has the best soundtrack I've heard this year. It's a great game, a throwback to the days of old-school, hardcore, arcade gaming.
Now I'm looking forward to the sequel, Mushihimesama Futari, which looks even more hardcore...
