Craving some top-down shooter action? Look no further than the newly released Alien Core: Galaxy Invasion, now available on iOS. This game brings a fresh yet nostalgic twist to the genre with its low-res graphics and classic gameplay features. Ready to dive into the action? Let's explore what Alien Core has to offer.

In Alien Core, your mission is straightforward: take down the rogue AI known as O-Core, which has betrayed its creators and established the Ostallian Empire. The most effective way to do this? By piloting your starship and blasting through O-Core's forces.

The game adopts a low-res aesthetic, embracing the bullet hell genre while whisking you through retro-inspired spacescapes. You'll encounter all the staples of the genre, including power-ups to collect, essential ship upgrades to enhance your journey, and the exhilarating task of demolishing enemy installations, which explode in a satisfying pixelated spectacle.
