About Z-Exemplar
Z-Exemplar is a side-scrolling shooter with an 8-bit pixel-art style inspired by the Sinclair ZX Spectrum. You pilot a fighter craft through a hostile galaxy, shooting enemies and collecting the booty they leave behind as you try to conquer all 960 planets.
Conquer the galaxy
Each planet has uniquely configured defenses. As you explore farther into the galaxy, enemies become more numerous and lethal, and defenses grow stronger. The game includes 960 planetary battlegrounds across 10 themes, hundreds of enemy types, huge end-of-level guardians and a galaxy full of secrets. Its estimated gameplay time is 16+ hours.
Choose your weapons
You can equip your fighter with over 20 upgradeable weapons. Choosing the right loadout for each planetary battle is essential, and the game offers 21 weapon loadouts.
Track the conquest
A conquest leaderboard tracks who will be first to take over the entire galaxy.
Pixel-art presentation
The visuals use bright, bold 8-bit pixel art and the ZX Spectrum's colour palette. The game also features authentic 8-bit audio.
