Maybe there are some licensing issues now that Rewolf are goners.
It occurred to me later that the rights to the game might actually belong to Activision nowadays, not Valve.
But this tidbit from Wikipedia does seem to throw some water on that theory.

However, redeeming a Gunman Chronicles CD-key on Steam gives access to a "Half-Life Platinum Pack" that includes Half-Life 1 and several add-ons: Half-Life: Blue Shift, Half-Life Deathmatch, Half-Life: Opposing Force, Team Fortress Classic, Ricochet and Day of Defeat, but not Gunman Chronicles.

There's some crazy side-scrolling shooter where your ship gets bigger and bigger, and enemies drift in from the side as well as emerging from the background. I am pretty sure it was on the PS1. I only watched a friend play it but it looked amazzoong
I don't remember a game on PS1, but the ship growing part sounds similar to (

Hm it wasn't a Kenta Cho game and my friend was definitely not a PC guy - he was just sitting back with a grey controller. This is back around 2001-2003

Also there is a crazy japanese arcade vertical shooter where you are flying on animu steampunk machines. I think the characters you could choose from were an old man who kind of looked like a fat Zan (the old guy in Streets of Rage 3) or some animu girls. It was a bullet hell shooter, iirc welp.
Is the second one (

Hm nope it was a vertical scroller, a bottom-to-top affair along the lines of Do Don Pachi and Perfect Cherry Blossom. The only time I played it was on a coin-op machine - I dumped a lot of money into it :D
