GALAK-Z

GALAK-Z casts you as a pilot fighting through hostile space in an anime-inspired 2D shooter. Its episodic campaign is divided into seasons made up of missions with procedurally assembled layouts and enemy encounters. Combat depends on momentum and positioning: thrust, drift, brake, and boost to manage enemy pursuit. Switch between your ship and mech form, fire weapons or missiles from a distance, and use the environment—or throw foes into it—when fighting up close. Missions offer weapon and equipment upgrades as you progress. Rogue Mode makes a season-ending defeat cost your run, while Arcade Mode provides mission checkpoints so you can retry without restarting the whole story. The Void DLC adds endless play and daily score challenges.

Pilot a physics-driven space fighter that shifts into a mech, using weapons and terrain to survive procedurally assembled missions.
