Einhänder is a shoot 'em up developed by Square, released between 1997 and 1998 for the PlayStation.

Development

Einhänder was produced at Square's then-newly-founded Osaka office, which specialized in genres other than role-playing games. Development lasted for a total of fourteen months from July 1996 to October 1997, with the first two months being dedicated to prototype testing. Director Tatsuo Fujii and programmer Akira Suzuki had previously programmed shoot 'em ups for Konami, including Gradius II and Xexex.
