About This Game

Upgrade your pilot and spaceship by using points earned from eliminating enemies and staying alive. Visit the shop to enhance your vessel with various defense mechanisms and weaponry. Battle through a vast array of procedurally generated adversaries, power-ups, hidden armaments, and massive boss enemies. You can even leave your ship to fight aliens while your shields recharge. The experience is backed by an excellent authentic chiptune soundtrack. Star Drifter is a full-screen, keyboard-driven arcade shooter designed to emulate the brutal difficulty of classic games. It offers no assistance; expect to face a punishing challenge where frequent death and score loss are part of the experience. This game is meant for players who want a genuine test of skill, so prepare to rage as you are destroyed repeatedly. Good luck from Dan and Martin.
