galaxy defender is here

One of the best arcade shooters in this category! Cool graphics(including background),very nice sound,involving gameplay. Powerups,rockets,bonus score points and a bunch of aliens to destroy(ofcourse). Plus 9 mighty bosses to get rid of will keep you busy for hours. Overall for this game-5 stars!

Well Done Shooter

Star Defender 2 is an excellent Galaga style shooter.

Your task is simply to fend off wave after wave of enemies. You can't move from the bottom of the screen, so you have to dodge left/right in order to stay alive.

Enemy attack patterns are quite randomized, so you won't always know what to expect. Power-ups drop from enemies as you destroy them, such as weapon upgrades or shields.

When you take a hit, your weapon downgrades by one level. If you only have a level one weapon and you are hit, you die. There are plenty of upgrades and the weapons get quite powerful later on.

There are nine "missions", each consisting of 10-15 levels including a boss fight. Bosses are well done in this game, having separate destroyable parts.

Star Defender 2 can be quite challenging at some points, and quite easy at others, regardless of difficulty setting.

All in all it's a well thought out and executed game, and should be a staple in any space shooter fan's collection.

Time is of the Essence

Great game. My Grandson (10) loves it. Would be much better if it had a pause /suspend button to enable a hold on the game like Ricochet.
