About the Game

Classic STG, Two-Player Co-op Returns!

This is a very traditional STG. You cannot play online — that's right, the only way is to invite a friend to your home and fight together, just like before: the two of you sit in front of the screen and break through the hard parts side by side.

Of course, this doesn't stop you from choosing to fight alone (but that'll be harder).

Pick from a Lineup of Distinctive Fighters!

Pilot-Xun

Main Weapon

Energy Weapon:“Holy Blade” Laser

Kinetic Weapon:Volley Launcher

Skills

Energy Burst:Plasma Shield

Kinetic Burst:Barrage

Super Weapon

Pulsar Beam

Profile

Sustained fire holds one point, or sweeps the forward arc in continuous barrage. An omnidirectional field cancels all incoming rounds; a multi-link array spends one dense salvo. Flash and thunder become a colossal beam through the front.

Pilot-Guang

Main Weapon

Energy Weapon:Particle Beam Launcher

Kinetic Weapon:Focused Autocannon

Skills

Energy Burst:Aegis “Phoenix”

Kinetic Burst:Draconian Claw

Super Weapon

Colossal Wing

Profile

This machine's doctrine is calling in formed units. Particle beams blanket the forward arc; a high-rate stream then converges on any single point left in it. When rounds close, a support unit can be brought in off-field, or a combat wingman ordered to fall in briefly. Against a massed enemy, it directs the full bomber formation to cover the field.

Pilot-Jia

Main Weapon

Energy Weapon:Violet Lightning

Kinetic Weapon:“Ifrit” Launcher

Skills

Energy Burst:Power Storm

Kinetic Burst:Volcano Shot

Super Weapon

Fighter Alpha

Profile

Several arcs spread outward from first impact; a low-rate heavy gun drives ahead, each shell unusually heavy. Hull-cast EM radiation cancels incoming fire, scorching nearby units. One colossal shell punches through several targets. Against formidable foes, called-in heavy armor sheathes the hull, its full armament under sole command.

Pilot-He

Main Weapon

Energy Weapon:Pulse Launcher “Demon Buster”

Kinetic Weapon:IR Launcher “Fiery Will”

Skills

Energy Burst:Disruptors

Kinetic Burst:Sunburst

Super Weapon

Annihilator

Profile

Several light waves fan into the forward sector, each on its own track; one band of heat holds a single point. Fold-back waveguides sit on both flanks; a blast shell fans across them on contact. At the decisive moment, the gravity-field generator lays down a gravity well, enveloping every foe within—fire fiercest at the core.

Dual-Color Energy Burst — Twin Energy Weapons!

Using different weapon types builds different kinds of energy (the two rise and fall against each other). When a gauge is full, you can use a more targeted energy weapon. Red energy favors attack, blue energy favors defense. Each fighter's dual energy grants you a different set of abilities.

Permanent Upgrades Outside of Battle!

Score from every battle turns into resources for upgrading your weapons. Outside of battle you can level those weapons up permanently, increasing your fighter's damage and widening its attack range. The better you (and your partner) perform, the faster your fighter grows — see which of you contributed more.

Every Boss Will Drive You Up the Wall!

Warning: they're absurdly strong — you might end up smashing your controller or keyboard! Maybe the mouse too. Of course, this game doesn't require a mouse at all!

Reminder again: use a controller if you can, or it really is hard!

About Adventure Mode

Adventure Mode plays out roguelike-style. Each battle runs a bit shorter than the current stages, and after each victory you pick a different route forward.

Adventure Mode gives you a more complete story. You'll meet a mechanic, pirates, merchants, and a string of aliens tied to the plot. They're a mixed bag — some of them may not even be living things.

Through them you can get all sorts of weapons to modify your fighter, or spend reward tokens to raise its base stats — no more spoilers here.

All in all, Adventure Mode keeps the traditional combat longtime fans love while matching the pace of today's players. The difficulty curve is gentler, but a modified fighter makes the fighting even more intense!
