About Star Drifter
Star Drifter is an action space shooter in which you pilot a ship against aliens. You earn points by destroying enemies and surviving, then spend them in the shop to upgrade your ship and equip weapon and defence systems.
Enemies and combat
The game features randomly generated enemies, power-ups, secret weapons and huge bosses. You can also leave your ship to attack aliens while its shields regenerate.
Arcade challenge
Star Drifter is designed as a hard, punishing old-school arcade shooter. You will die often, and can lose your score. It also features an authentic chiptune soundtrack.
