Gar-Type is a gloriously unholy mash-up of Gorefield and R-Type, where you attempt to save humanity from a living planet that’s on a collision course with Earth.
Featuring the incredible pixel art animation of LumpyTouch (creator of Gorefield), Gar-Type is a mouse-controlled side-scrolling shoot ‘em up inspired by R-Type. You step into the shoes of pilot Jon Starbuckle as he pilots the new starfighter prototype, the Gar-Type D on a mission to save the world. I giant living planet called GORESTAR is headed straight for Earth and you need to stop it.
Gar-Type features four challenging levels, each with their own multistage boss-fights. There are three different weapon power-ups (plus a special one), and you also have a handy G-Field Jump ability that allows you to teleport through solid objects and release an AOE attack.
It’s a fantastic game with superb pixel art animation, a killer soundtrack, great gags and epic boss fights. It takes a few minutes to get used to the mouse-controls, but once you do they allow for a great amount of precision and speed. A perfect piece of retro arcade action. Highly recommended.
