The Developer Says...

Spartaga starfighters battle through a VR Bullet-Hell!



Jump into a classic arcade game re-imagined for Virtual Reality. Spartaga's combat gameplay, challenging enemies, and arcade atmosphere will immerse you in the action. A game of fast reactions, skill, and consistent battles so you can achieve mastery!

VR Motion controls let you pull off split second dodges and powerful attacks just by moving your arm- your starfighter sits in your hand.

Carbon Based Lifeforms

In addition to the pulse thumping retro soundtrack, take a breather and play in Carbon Mode. We’ve partnered with Carbon Based Lifeforms, one of the world’s most popular ambient electronica artists. CBL is a duo from Sweden, providing an alternative music set to help you get into a meditative combat flow. The goal of CBL is “to combine earth and space in fine-tuned, but still solid, music visions, seldom forgetting the irreplaceable.” Seems right!
