AEGIS 2186

great oldschool arcade shooter, its like an old neo geo game with sharper image and brighter colors https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L3NNbOB8E4A

Can you survive 2 minutes? It's a very simple but difficult game. Similar to Asteroids, except you're an immobile circle in the center of the screen that can only rotate 360 degrees but not move otherwise. Enemies (triangles of varying sizes) come directly at you from all directions. Smaller enemies take fewer shots to kill than larger ones. Arrow keys rotate. Spacebar fires your main weapon. Hold spacebar for a larger shot that does more damage. Each shot you take depletes the shot power bar. Press Q to fire heat-seeking missiles, of which you have a limited supply, so use them only in emergencies. The main missle will break off into a series of smaller missiles after striking its first target. Your shield deflects enemy shots back at them, but does not hold up for long. It will replenish itself occasionally. Defeating bosses (giant triangles) will drop powerups that you can use to levl up your shot power, regain health, etc. There is an element of randomness which can make it frustrating, but also leads to the urge to try it one more time. I know I can beat my high score!

Like a neon soaked 80's version of Asteroids, on steroids, you play as Earth and try to protect yourself from spaceships by blowing them up https://youtu.be/VsBEYLkJrg8

I guess this game will never leave early access.

I recommend this game, it's a cool retro throwback to the days of fun simple games, you can just dip in and out for some fast fun. It's pretty intense and exciting to try and survive and get a good time on the leaderboard.

Great Gameplay. Awesome Music (Though it is just the one song...:( ) I love shooting giant white balls at the pink triangles. I am looking forward to more updates and things like upgrades. https://youtu.be/lceRRz26c3g
