Galactic Wars EX

Galactic Wars EX is a pixel-art arcade shoot ’em up with chiptune music, playable solo or in co-op for two players. You pilot one of three ships, each with different capabilities, and fight against enemies across scenarios shaped by procedural systems, so enemies and settings can vary between runs.

Ships and combat

The game includes more than 15 types of enemies, along with bosses and mini-bosses. You can use a range of weapons and power-ups, while an improved energy and ship upgrade system supports your fights.

Arcade features

Galactic Wars EX uses a late-1980s and early-1990s arcade look, including scanlines and CRT effects. Its action runs at 60 frames per second and supports Full HD and 4K displays. Chiptune arcade music and sound effects accompany bonuses, score multipliers, a stats screen and a persistent high-score table, with scores suited to competitive co-op play.
