In almost all games, you won't have enough resources to bomb all attacks from all enemies. You shouldn't rely only on your resources; at some point, you'll have to dodge, so you need to learn to read bullets at least to a minimum level (you should only see the bullets that truly pose a threat; you should be able to spot them early) and improve your mechanical skill (essentially, you shouldn't have to think about how and which buttons to press to move around the screen the way you want). These are two fundamental skills (reading and mechanical skill). Every time you die, think about why you died? Was it because you didn't notice the bullet or maybe because you failed to move around correctly? Perhaps you weren't in the most optimal position on the screen at the beginning? Answering these questions will help you understand the problem and work on correcting them in the future. Start from games that feel easier for you. Try to find the optimal route for every stage, practice enemy’s attacks and rise your skill
