CHAMP Galaxia

CHAMP Galaxia is a retro arcade shooter that looks back fondly at the early days of computer space combat. The action revolves around controlling a small craft, blasting waves of hostile targets, and surviving increasingly hectic attacks. There is no need to spend twenty minutes reading a manual before getting started; the game is built around immediate feedback, simple controls, and the eternal arcade principle that the next screen should contain something trying to kill you. Its presentation deliberately recalls the colorful simplicity of early coin-op shooters, while the gameplay encourages repeated attempts and score chasing. The difficulty can become surprisingly demanding, especially once several enemies are moving at once. It is uncomplicated entertainment, but sometimes that is exactly what a retro shooter should be: a screen full of enemies and absolutely no committee meetings.
