Twin-stick shooter is a subgenre of shoot 'em up video games. It is defined as a multidirectional shooter in which the player character is controlled using two joysticks: one for movement on a flat plane and the other to shoot in the direction the joystick is pushed. Usually shots are fired as soon as the second joystick is moved, but in some games there is an additional button which must be held.
