## What is AlienShield?

AlienShield is a fast, glowing vector-style arcade shooter inspired by the golden age of coin-op games.

An alien fortress hangs in the dark, wrapped in three spinning rings of shield. Fly your ship, blast gaps in the rings and line up a shot at the cannon in the centre. But the cannon only fires when it has a clear line to you, sparks break loose from the rings to hunt you down, and the shields rebuild when you clear the outer ring. Every round gets faster.

FEATURES
- Authentic arcade feel: crisp vector lines, phosphor glow and chip-style sound effects
- Three difficulty levels: Easy, Normal and Hard, each with its own top-five scores
- Touch controls built for phones and tablets, plus game controller support
- Earn an extra ship for every cannon you destroy
- Pause menu with sound and music volume
- Completely offline. No ads, no purchases, no account, no tracking

Easy to learn, hard to put down. How high can you score?
