That isn’t really an issue: bullet heaven shooters, as I like to call them, focus on the ultra-simple yet painfully addictive gameplay loop of putting the player into an increasingly intense arena full of brainless AI enemies running towards them, with the player having to navigate around them, kill them via randomly selected auto-firing weaponry and upgrade themselves more and more.
