Sine Mora is a collaborative effort between Grasshopper Manufacture (Killer 7, Lollipop Chainsaw, No More Heroes) and Digital Reality. Sine Mora's soundtrack was composed by Akira Yamaoka, of Silent Hill fame.
Released in 2010 on Xbox Live Arcade, Sine Mora is an excellent shmup themed around time and time travel. As such, when your ship takes a hit you don't immediately die, but instead you lose time. If your timer reaches 0 it counts as a game over. In that way your timer doubles as a constantly depleting health bar making each section of each level a race against time.
Sine Mora also features a fascinating story, which is pretty rare for a shmup. While we're on the subject of story, I should throw out a trigger warning for some of the darker subject matter that the game covers.
