Hallo Spaceboy

Hallo Spaceboy is a 2D side-scrolling space shoot ’em up in which you pilot a ship through a dramatic story of intergalactic intrigue. You fight enemy ships and devise strategies to defeat a tough boss at the end of each level.

Enemies and combat

The game features 25 enemy ship types, each with unique weapons and tactics. They aim ahead of your movement, dodge missiles and use asteroids for cover, so you must maneuver to avoid their attacks. Enemy ships are physics objects rather than instant-death hazards: collisions slightly damage both ships.

Upgrade your ship

You can upgrade your ship to suit your preferences and carry up to three weapons at once. Of the 10 weapons available, five can only be picked up in battle; the other five can be bought and upgraded in the armory.

Visuals and music

The game combines 2D play with 3D ship models, whose armor plates reflect light. Its soundtrack includes 14 retro-sounding electronic music tracks.
