Lives up to the advertised experience. Very tight and cleanly polished classic 8-bit top-down and space shooter hybrid with just a very few modern touches to grease the fun a bit and a lot of old-style charm.
Some replay value through difficulty level

this game is so good
wonderfully retro, straight to the point
and just all around a really good bullet hell shooter
how is this not tagged bullet hell yet?
get this a bullet hell tag
it deserves it
unlike many other games...

It's what it looks like: a spiritual sequel to The Guardian Legend. It's been streamlined into linear levels, but you still have the on-foot section, with free aiming and hunting down NPCs for items, and the scrolling shmup section. You can use an invinci

The Guardian Legend hastaları, (36 sene sonra) ilacınız geldi (diyolla)… Ben diyemiyorum, çünkü The Guardian Legend oynamadım. Ama diyorum ki bu oyun güzel. Biraz kısa ama güzel. Hatta bayağı kısa ama güzel. Cesur ve güzel :)

Great, little game. I don't think I've ever really played a shmup properly before so this was a fun experience. I hope the developer is able to make another with this IP.

Now THIS is what you call an underrated gem!
AstroLancer is top-down shooter game mixed with bullet hell shmup sections and is a spiritual successor/tribute to the NES/Famicom game Guardian Legend (never heard of the game until researching so for me I ju

It's all right. I don't really like bullet hells, but I at least beat the easy mode.

I heard awhile back that this game was very The Guardian Legend except a little more bullet hell so of course I had to pick it up. First of all, for the way the game feels, yes. It is very The Guardian Legend and there are plenty of references to that gam

This is heavily inspired by The Guardian Legend on NES. Like TGL it's half overhead action and half shmup.
It's charming with good gameplay and great music. It has a decent story with great artwork in the cutscenes. I would recommend it to scratch th

This does everything perfectly. Sound track, difficulty, art-style, the little things NPCs say, it all totally nails the vibes of a NES-era game. While it can be challenging, the checkpoints are frequent, and you aren't forced to complete it within a cert

Very fun little Shmup game, with tight controls and superb throwback pixel art graphics. Also while challenging, I feel it's a pretty good choice as a gateway into the genre (speaking as someone who has played very few shmups).
As for the message at the

Great game :)
Surprisingly thoughtful story packed into a fun top down shooter.
Feels like picking up an NES game, right down to the kick-ass music.
With a few QoL features and more options. Which are also appreciated.

Wow, Astrolancer is a classic in the making, the quality left me dumbfounded, with such incredible spritework to resemble a games from the 8-bit NES era, and with tight gameplay, great bullet patterns and music that just clicks for me. It took me two hour

As someone from back in the day who loves The Guardian Legend for life, this mostly scratches the itch for a spiritual sequel, but not fully. In one of the later stages, you get those infamous fish enemies that comes down the sides of the screen during th

"An indie game inspired by Guardian Legend" is how I was sold on this title, and I don't think it should be advertised like that by word of mouth. ASTROLANCER is in many ways similar to NES classic, but it's a completely different experience.

I loved Guardian Legend and this game takes that premise and elevates it in my opinion. Love the pixel art, love the different ways to customize the character's stats and weapons, love the level design, love the shooting, it's just such a fun, old-school
