     @Telvannichad well it's an arcade game so they're probably just using infinite continues
     
     which is why this game punishes you by resetting your score with each continue.

     @Telvannichad Also not Reddit gold likely much as "dad's an adult nerd into old shit".
     
     It's a thing that nerds do if they have kids, they get them to play old ass/niche games.

     @anornymorse @Telvannichad DoDonPachi is a pretty good way to get good at memorization and hand-eye coordination.
     
     The entire premise of the game is to dodge shit.

     Personally I prefer the sequel IMO though, the tracker music soundtrack and 16-bit cyberpunk anime aesthetic is miles better.

     @PhenomX6 @Telvannichad My kids were forbidden from playing games past the SNES era. Games are to teach hand-eye coordination and quick decision making skills, as well as teaching basic programming principles.
     
     Games are not babysitters.
