About Tastrion

Somewhere in the vast unknown, a rogue planet drifts endlessly into space, once belonging to an advanced civilization that has now been consumed by Tastrion, an artificial mutagen that is the most potent genotoxin ever made. The last hope of humanity has been deployed from Ginsaria 9, a space colony that has developed a gunship titled ''Desolazor'' wielding a powerful weapon to fight back and eradicate the infestation before it spreads further across the galaxy...

Tastrion is a Shoot 'Em Up inspired by 90's classics such as Gradius, Arrow Flash, and Gleylancer. The weapon system is simplistic. 5 Buttons, 3 shots. Main frontal Photon lasers, multi-directional Ion spread, armor-piercing rail gun, Focus mode, and an all-powerful solar-powered radiant bomb. with the help of upgradable pickups across your missions, turn your weaponry and ship into the ultimate massacre machine.

The game includes:

- 6 Stages, 2 secret alternate stages, 16 bosses, secret rare power-up containers, one secret superweapon, and 1 secret super difficult stage.
- 1 Single-player game mode
- Weaponry upgradable up to 8 times.
- Dark-synth and industrial-themed music.

Tastrion is a modern take on 16-bit 90's era shmups with a modern aspect ratio, it isn't entirely a bullet hell, but expect a challenge.

Notes:
- The trailer is not a complete representation of the final product, so expect enemy placements and details in stages may be slightly different on release.
- Supports Xbox, Playstation, and third-party controllers but mainly focuses on Xbox users.

This game has been made with SHMUP Creator! A versatile tool for creating Shoot 'Em Up genres.
Kudos to the talented creators and the community!

Pure and brutal bullet-hell experience with boring stages and passable enemies. If you’re looking for a pure, unfiltered arcade shooter experience without any unnecessary baggage—no convoluted mechanics, no deep narrative—then this game is right up your alley. You’re given a simple premise: you’re the pilot of a special fighter, sent to a hostile planet to eradicate a deadly virus. That’s all the setup you get before you’re thrust into the action. The game consists of six grueling stages, and you have a limited number of lives with only one continue to fall back on. Once you’re out, it’s game over, and you’ll have to start from the beginning. There are two difficulty settings, but let’s be honest—both are unforgiving. This is a bullet-hell shooter in the truest sense, where survival means weaving through intricate patterns. Fortunately, for those who prefer to jump straight into the chaos, a stage select option is available. Despite its straightforward design, the game arms you with a decent selection of weapons. There’s the ion spread that fires multiple shots in a wide arc, ideal for dealing with enemies that approach from all angles; a high-powered rail gun that gets stronge…

Solid horizontal shmup with fantastic art and music. It feels like taking a time machine back into the 90s (but with more bullets).

This is pretty good. Reminds me of Darius. I like how you get multiple weapons at the same time. I'm not so fond of how it becomes overly bullet-hell like later on. When I got to Stage 3 it felt unfair. That said, I completed the game on the second proper attempt so it's not that bad. I have not tried hard mode...

Great Visuals, fantastic music to match the action, fun bosses, been playing the demo before the game was released and was not disappointed with the final product, I still need to play MORE when time allows it but couldn't let this gem get away.
