From Humble Bundle. Yumekobo, 1998. Runs in latest MAME (0.267). One button; hold to charge shot. Five or so selectable ships. Lovely graphics with ridiculous amounts of detail--but also bright white hit flashes on bigger enemies, argh.

Oh it's the follow-up to Aicom's 1995 Pulstar, which was pretty much the same thing--but that one was also very slow, with loads of slowdown; this one doesn't have those problems.
