About Galactic Pixel Storm
A space shooter drawn in bright pixel art. You fly through arenas, fire rockets at whatever is in them, and the explosions are the reward the game is built around.
The ship can be upgraded and power ups appear as you go, so a later run starts from a better place than the first one did. It is a straightforward arcade loop rather than a campaign, which is the right shape for something you play for five minutes. It plays in portrait at 600 by 800, which suits a phone held upright.
How to play
- Move your ship through the arena.
- Fire rockets at the enemies in front of you.
- Collect power ups as they drop.
- Put what you earn into upgrading the ship.

Tips
- Keep to the lower half of the screen. It gives you the most time to react to what arrives.
- Upgrade firepower before anything cosmetic. A slow gun is what ends most runs here.
