Empire: Galaxy Burning

Empire: Galaxy Burning is a shoot-’em-up in which you pilot an elite Type One fighter across five levels to stop an ancient superweapon before it threatens the galaxy.

An ancient threat

An archaeology team spends years searching for EMPIRE, a legendary remnant of the first space-faring civilisation. EMPIRE is a vast planet ship with incredible technology, said by some to grant wishes. When the team finds it, the ship is hostile and active. It shoots down one of the archaeologists, whose desperate wish for revenge is granted by EMPIRE. You must stop the superweapon while your injured friend and a galaxy unaware of the danger remain in its path.

The Type One

Use the fighter’s lasers, beam weapons and screen-clearing electron pulse to fight through the five levels. The enemy has several tricks of its own. For an added challenge, aim for a perfect 1cc run.
