Crafted by enthusiasts in the lineage of the great R-Type-style shoot-'em-ups, this homebrew gives no quarter: aggressive sceneries, enemies bursting in from the edges and a pod to wield with finesse through narrow passages. Memorizing the screens and anticipating each assault become essential. Stern and tough, it speaks to purists ready to start over again and again.

Memorable bosses

A late, relentless homage to the classics of the horizontal shooter, this independent title pits you against biomechanical colossi whose suffocating fire is straight out of the R-Type school. Each guardian demands placing your satellite pod to the millimeter and memorizing merciless patterns. Its fearsome, near-punishing difficulty makes it a trial for veterans, where every win is earned.
