Charmingly Crude

Rubbish Barrage is somewhat crude: hand-drawn images by someone who is clearly not a Photoshop jockey, backgrounds and music ripped from somewhere or other, hacked together by one guy pretty quickly.

It's also kind of charming. It's a sidescrolling shmup, with enemies appearing at any or all screen edges and following pre-set (but not a priori predictable) movement patterns. You have to dodge, or destroy enough of the attackers that they don't intersect you. Three lives and you're out, though this just puts you back at the beginning of the current level (thankfully), not the game.
