Default PARALLAX - out now!

We are proud to present our latest game



this one-level shmup hell will get your adrenaline pumping.
as you fly through space and shoot endless waves of alien scum,
the multiplier climbs up and boosts your score.
With every kill the game gets faster. And faster. And FASTER!
In fact, this is one of the fastest shmups out there!

Take a look at the trailer. It has aliens!

This is an awesome game! reminds me of the games you'd find in the Nokia 3310, i recommend this to all who like arcade games, retro games and like a challenge The controls are simple (touch or joystick).
Its simple aliens come at u and u shoot em up ! As u keep shooting without getting hit, the aliens' and ur projectiles' speed increases, You may collect extra lives and other power-ups by passing over them when they appear,
