ExtraGalactica

ExtraGalactica follows Flerp, a quirky quarterback for Plum University's varsity football team, and Nova, the team's peppy feline mascot. They set out to save Celestro, the Milky Way galaxy's true ninth planet, after Anode, the villain from the arcade classic ExtraGalactica, is freed after being beaten at his own game and sets his sights on the planet. Their journey also involves reclaiming the championship trophy and facing the Argonauts in a gridiron grudge match.

Space battles

You pilot the Super G Machine in bullet-hell space shooter missions to defend Celestro from Anode. Retro Dash slows time so you can cross a hectic, bullet-filled battlefield. You can fill a skill streak meter to activate Super G, which unleashes full-screen attacks, or use the Barrel wave attack to break through bullet hell. Space battles are randomly generated, so no two playthroughs of any game mode are the same.

Campaign and exploration

The campaign is planned as a platformer and shoot-'em-up hybrid in which you explore Celestro with Flerp and Nova. The planned surface exploration involves fortifying the planet's defenses against impending space threats; if Celestro is not saved, it is game over.

Infinite Mode

Infinite Mode offers a never-ending run through the space-shooter section. It includes visual upgrades for your weapon systems and a scaling difficulty system designed to let newcomers get started while providing veteran pilots with a late-game challenge.
