Starglax: Space Shooter

STARGLAX: neon bullet hell Cut through swarms of hostile ships across 26 deep-space sectors. A pure vertical shoot-em-up with one goal: the perfect run. ▶ 26-SECTOR CAMPAIGN 25 sectors plus an EX-26 true finale, from the asteroid belt to the galactic core. Every sector ends with a massive boss, and the further you go, the harder the bosses hit. ▶ 5 BOSS FAMILIES Sentinel spiral-cannons, Vanguard strafers, Dreadnought war cruisers, Leviathan splitters, Hydra cephalopods. Each boss gets more aggressive over three attack phases. Expect spiral bursts, vertical rain, radial fans and laser beams, and some bosses split in two. ▶ 16 ENEMY TYPES Drifters fly straight down and Phantoms cloak. Bombers drop mines, Clerics heal their allies, Pyros fire lasers and Splicers deflect your shots. Every enemy needs a different counter. ▶ GRAZE & COMBO SCORING Skim past enemy bullets for bonus points. Keep your kill chain going to raise the combo multiplier to x3.0. Every run is a shot at a new high score. ▶ SKILL TREE & DRAFT Spend stars on permanent upgrades such as extra drones, a wider pickup range, a freezing bomb and weapon overdrive, spread across five branches. During a run, weapon drops and EVOLVE cards change your loadout on the fly. Five weapons, five tiers each. No two runs play the same. ▶ 3 DIFFICULTIES + NOVA LOOP Easy, Normal, Hard.
