        Bullet Heaven is the name of an existing game, don’t clobber it with a genre name.

          An existing game from newgrounds posted 14 years ago. I don’t think it’s going to cause that much confusion.

          Looks like it’s too late. I Googled bullet heaven and it took a few minutes to find the actual game, which is ironically a bullet hell game.

        It should be more in inverse bullet hell: it’s hell, but not for you.

        Normal bullet hell (Touhou): the enemies shoot a hell of bullets at you. And your job is to avoid it. Reverse bullet hell (Vampire Survivors): you shoot a hell of bullets at the enemies. And your job is to shoot even more, bigger, stronger bullets.

        I didn’t come up with the name, that’s just what people have been calling it for as long as I can remember.
