Okay, so TwinBee Da!! is one of those classic Game Boy shooters that somehow makes dodging bullets feel cheerful. You're piloting this little pastel-colored ship, blasting away at floating islands and weird balloon enemies—half the time, I wasn't even sure if I was supposed to feel tense or just laugh at the absurdity. The power-ups drop in these floating bells, and smacking them changes their color for different weapons. Messed that up a few times before realizing red was way better for crowd control.

It's got that old-school arcade vibe where everything moves just a little too fast for the tiny screen, but somehow that’s part of the charm. Also, the music? Weirdly catchy in that 8-bit way. If you’re into retro shmups that don’t take themselves too seriously, this one’s a solid time-waster between bus rides.
