Overview
The incanscendent 2D space battle game has been levelled up! GALAK-Z is an open world as well as modern artificial intelligence – physics driven action game, seeing the battle through a special lens of classic 16-bit. Using the GALAK-Z, equipped with next-generation Cyntient AI platform, players can become a pilot of an animated spaceship which exists in the world created by a process.
In addition to the fact that GALAK-Z is a love letter given to the 80’s arcade space battle game and Japanese SF animation, it is also a genuine evolution of 2D battle game. Control a dynamic and unusual world by beating the cunning enemies using high-speed control function… That is a space battle game with modern and also retro style that nobody has ever played!

Comment from the writer
Although the controls are peculiar and difficult, it is also a refreshing seating game once you get used to it. I felt that this game is very attractive because the characters are created in American style and it contains some scenes which seems to have an influence from Japanese SF animations. I’m looking forward to the sequel of the mobile version which is apparently produced within this year.
