Toaplan was a Japanese developer that operated between 1984 and 1994. Famous for popularizing the bomb-based gameplay system that became a staple in shoot em ups, and perfectly balanced enemy placement and attack patterns that required a strategic approach. Today Toaplan is curated by Tatsujin with many of the former key Toaplan staff employed at Tatsujin. Bitwave have ported Toaplans slate of immortal shoot em ups to PC.
