Craving some top-down shooter action? Look no further than the newly released Alien Core: Galaxy Invasion, now available on iOS! While the genre is familiar, Alien Core brings its own charm with a low-res twist that might just pull you in.
In Alien Core, your mission is straightforward: take down the rogue AI, O-Core, which has turned against its creators and established the Ostallian Empire. The best way to do this? Hop into your starship and blast your way through O-Core's forces.
Alien Core adopts a nostalgic, low-resolution style within the bullet hell genre, letting you race through retro-inspired spacescapes. You'll encounter all the classic elements: snagging power-ups, upgrading your ship, and demolishing enemy installations in a satisfying shower of pixels.
Shoot the core! With a variety of boss battles, multiple ships to unlock, and the choice between arcade and story modes, Alien Core packs a punch. The game's chain-reaction mechanic adds an extra layer of fun, making the destruction of pixels incredibly satisfying.
While the graphics might seem a bit too basic for some, Alien Core compensates with its rich feature set. If you're in the mood for some fast-paced retro action, this game is definitely worth exploring.
