Our take on Project Starship
The dramatic premise points toward an epic confrontation, but the described experience centers on arcade bullet dodging, changing mechanics, and repeated combat encounters rather than detailed world exploration.
What is Project Starship?
An arcade bullet-hell game built around changing mechanics, with each run presenting a different arrangement of challenges.
Players choose between Garret and Gwen, guide the selected hero through dense fields of incoming bullets, and confront demons and gods. The setting frames these encounters as a struggle against an obscure, arcane threat, with the stated objective of finding a hidden eye while facing the entity called Cthulhu.
