Super OST Retro Arcade Game

Super OST (Old School Tempest) is a retro space vector game that gives a nod to one of my favorite Atari games of all time. It's a really fun game to introduce your kids to if they're interested in the types of games we played as kids ourselves!

There are over a dozen levels with increasing difficulty! There's an amazing soundtrack that adds to the excitement! There's explosions! Lots and lots of particles flying all over the place!!! Nice little touches like old school monitor scan lines!! There's retro sound effects to round out the whole experience!! Oh, and did I mention explosions? ;)

Gameplay

In this game, you play as a spaceship and must defeat all the enemies in your path. Your ship is mounted with blasters, of course, but it also features a one-time use superzap that nukes anything on the board (it recharges when you start a new level - don't worry).

To play, use your finger to swipe around on the screen to move the ship. Press the first red button to fire your blaster and hold the button for continuous fire! Press the second magenta button to fire your superzap if you need to. It will turn blue when it's discharged but will recharge at the beginning of each round. Tap the Pause text at the top of the screen to pause the game. Every 10,000 points you'll get a new ship, as well.

I hope you enjoy this game as much as I do and regular updates will be added with new content, levels, fixes and enhancements! Your opinion really matters to me a lot and I read all feedback left. If you take the time to write something constructive regarding how much you've enjoyed this game or any problems you're encountering, it really helps me know what to focus on for future releases. Thanks for playing Super OST! :D

Note: Even though this is a retro-style game, it can really be a lot for older phones to handle due to the amount of explosions and particle effects that can happen sometimes. If you have a new-ish device made in the last few years you should be ok. In any event, even though the game takes advantage of dedicated graphics hardware if present, some graphical slowdown when the action is intense is normal. :)
