XGalaga HD: Arcade Shooter
Neon convoy shooter, remade
$1.99
Every ship, bolt and explosion is rendered on your device at launch - no bitmaps, no compromises. The 1998 classic's waves, rebuilt from scratch.
The classic wave shooter, rebuilt from the ground up.
Alien convoys sweep in along hand-authored flight paths, lock into formation, then peel off to dive at you one at a time. Hold the line, grab what they drop, and see how far into the swarm you can get.
EVERY PIXEL GENERATED
There isn't a single bitmap in this game. Every ship, bolt, power-up and explosion is rendered on your device at first launch by a purpose-built engine - bevelled surfaces lit by a three-point rig, metal that reflects a real environment probe, ambient occlusion, contact shadows between parts, and bloom applied before the image is tone-mapped. It looks pre-rendered because it is. Just on your hardware, at your display's resolution.
SEVENTEEN ALIEN CLASSES
Six hull families across four threat tiers, from teal scout drones through amber raptors and violet shardlords to the gold-crested Dreadnought and Leviathan. Each has its own silhouette, armour, claws and weak-point glow.
BUILT TO FEEL RIGHT
- A locked 60 Hz simulation that stays smooth at 120 Hz on ProMotion
- Camera shake, hit-stop, and slow motion when you go down
- Engine trails, ion wakes, shockwaves and tumbling hull debris
- A ship that visibly upgrades as your loadout grows
ELEVEN POWER-UPS
Twin, tri and spread cannons. Autoloader, ammo cells, thrusters, deflector shields, smart bombs, extra ships and bounties.
PLAYS EVERYWHERE
One purchase covers iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple TV and Apple Watch. Touch, keyboard, game controller, Siri Remote or Digital Crown - all supported.
FAITHFUL WHERE IT COUNTS
The wave timings, entry flight paths and formation behaviour are reproduced exactly from the 1998 original: all fifteen hand-authored levels, looping with rising aggression. What's new is everything you see and hear.
No ads. No in-app purchases. No tracking. Buy it once, it's yours.
