Itching for a SHMUP? This is the one.

If you are expecting a big deep game with a cool plot and/or twist or interesting mechanics, then this is not your game. However if you are itching just to get a game, play for 10 minutes and blast a whole species out of existence, then this is a game for you. It's very simple and very focused as in it seems to only exist to satisfy that itch. Guns, perks, survival mode. Nothing excessive about the game other than the gore and ginormous waves of aliens, spiders, humanoid lizards, zombies, spiders (you get the picture). Good gun, perk and pickup variety, the music is surprisingly fitting and i never thought it stood in the way of the fun. Haven't tried multiplayer of which it supports up to 4 players on the same PC. You begin the game with some basic weapons and there is a quest mode which unlocks the (plenty) extra ones, same as the perks. So i recommend plowing through quest mode first and then setting your mind on beating one of the many and interesting challenge modes (which you also unlock via quest mode). Great game, for a very specific type of itch, 4/5 cause i haven't seen multiplayer yet and i'm sure it'll earn it's 5th as easily as it did th rest.
