Our take on Galactic Glitch
The gravity gun defines the combat: it lets players grab asteroids, mines, missiles, and enemies, then throw them at other targets. The arena’s objects and opponents become part of the weaponry.
What is Galactic Glitch?
Galactic Glitch is a 2D twin-stick shooter with physics-based combat and permadeath.
A gravity gun lets players grab asteroids, mines, enemy rockets, and hostile units, then launch them at enemies or into arena walls. Foes have multiple parts, with weak spots to target and armored areas to avoid. Players explore a glitched world of star systems, finding secrets and items while choosing a path. Abilities and items offer upgrade choices during each run, allowing players to combine powers into different loadouts. The game also includes colossal bosses and challenges players to push deeper into a collapsing galaxy.
