ESP Ra.De. is a vertical shooter Cave released in 1998, with psychically powered protagonists who fire both conventional projectiles and devastating special attacks. It's one of the most celebrated exponents of late-90s bullet hell, with intricate firing patterns demanding memorization and extreme reflexes. Decades later, it remains a mandatory reference for genre fans: the combination of brutal difficulty, careful art design, and electronic soundtrack made it a cult object inside and outside Japan.
