Specifically, ones that aren’t chock-full of mobile game enshittification and in-app purchases?

I don’t mind paying for games but I’m sick and tired of predatory monetization schemes and will immediately uninstall a game if the tutorial insists on showing me a store page.

    I like swarm survivor as the genre title myself.
    Did vampire survivors really create the genre?

      I think bullet heaven works in the sense that you spray the bullets, but it is also a swarm survivor too so I can agree with that as well.

      I don’t believe it was the first, but I do believe it was the one that brought the genre to the spotlight. Since Vampire survivors came out the genre has taken off and we’ve seen a great many takes on it which personally, I’ve enjoyed. I find the rather short gameplay nice for fitting into tight schedules and non-commitment gameplay
