Free massive shoot 'em up game!

Mechanical Star Astra is a high energy, colorful, retro shoot-‘em-up game by boghog. It fuses a solid arcade foundation with elements from modern games, resulting in a fully realized game with a wide variety of weapons, customization options, and other content that action fans can enjoy. Enter the distant future - the world of New Humanity - where Earth is a shell of its former self. 

New humanity needs your help!

Mechanical Star Astra delivers a classic arcade experience with five stages of intense action. Each round takes over 30 minutes to complete and comes with plenty of bonus arrange modes and unique combat adjustments. The graphics are extremely vibrant pixel art that requires an epilepsy warning (yet it’s not featured in the game). Traverse the galaxies in your ship or Machina; ships can be an assault jet, large battleship, enormous mechs, etc.

Find the right Machina for you so you can withstand the overwhelming firepower and massive explosions of your opponents. This is important as each ship meets a unique play style and has its own special mechanics. You can augment a ship by selecting more than one pilot (which have their own modifiers as well). It adds another layer of play-style customization. Whatever your strategy may be, your goal is to get up-close to the enemy and collect energy cubes.

The more energy you collect, the higher your rate of destruction. Of course, entering intergalactic warfare shouldn’t be done alone. Invite your friends to play this game or a local server. Mechanical Star Astra supports multiplayer gameplay but with a maximum of two players per game. It can be restrictive, so cooperation is key. You need to protect one another from bullets, spare shields to revive the other player, or assist in battle even if you’ve already passed. 

Out of this world retro arcade game

Mechanical Star Astra is a great shmup game for PC. It looks and plays like the classic arcade game but made even better with co-op mode. While only a limited number of players can join at a time, this still increases your chance of winning. Whether you play alone or with others, you will have a lot of fun choosing and customizing your ship with the game’s large catalog of options.
