Our take on Hangeki
The bounce point arrives when the opening levels give way to the later difficulty. Players seeking a forgiving arcade shooter may hit the wall while balancing survival against aggressive attacks that protect or improve a finishing time.
What is Hangeki?
Hangeki is an arcade shooter about battling alien waves with an arsenal of more than 50 weapons.
It offers ten core stages, 15-plus challenges, a boss-focused mode, endless play, and additional stages. Completion time determines each level’s score, so players can prioritize survival or attack aggressively while risking hits. Every core stage supports local co-op for two players.

Input is available through either keyboard or controller.
