Does anyone know any good shmup games on the Switch?

General
By shmup I mean games like Gradius, R-Type, Ikaruga, Raiden, Touhou, Mushihimesama and etc..
I recently got Mushihimesama which was ported to the Switch, much to my surprise considering how long I have wanted to play it. And even if I am not that good at it it's still fun. Haha, I can't even make it past stage 3 (out of the 5 stages total) without using a continue yet, and that's on the easiest difficulty. =P
That being said these games are still fun.
Now I do prefer the smaller hitbox styled ones, as in your hitbox is NOT the entire ship/character.
Furthermore I prefer when the only things that can kill you are the enemies and their bullets. Environment dodging is not fun on top of dodging all the bullets. =U
So if anyone knows any good shmups please tell me about them. =3 They don't need to be as hard as Cave's shmups like Mushihimesma. =P

So I don't feel much need to buy it again.
But thanks for the recommendation. =3
I heard Danmaku Unlimited 3 is on Switch as well as Steam. It's a bit bullet heavy but it's just your ship and enemy fire for a vast majority of it.
I should also mention that there's a little blue circle on your ship, and that's your hitbox, and there are no environmental hazards, just the enemies, their bullets, and the bullets they reflect if they have reflector shields.
