Good game, but it sits 100% of the way from its all-time low to full price. It drops harder in seasonal sales. Patience pays.

About this game

What this game is, in the developer's words

ZAXTRON EXPLUS is a fast-paced 1980s-style SHMUP/STG with bright graphics, challenging bosses and loads of secrets to find!

Dream big. Shoot bigger. Zaxtron EXPLUS is a turbo‑charged, score‑chasing arcade shmup set inside a kid’s late‑night dream. Choose from 6 weapons (each with an alt‑fire), melt screen‑filling bosses, and chase multipliers across Normal, Hard, Boss Rush, and the bonus Space Monsters mode—a love letter to classic ’80s Space Invaders—pulsing with a soundtrack by Filippo Game Audio (Vampire Survivors, Hill Climb Racing, LEGO® Hill Climb Adventures).

  About This Game

It’s the weekend. Sammy sneaks in “one more run” on the AGES Master Drive after everyone’s asleep… and drifts off mid‑game.

Welcome to his dream—where he’s strapped into a jetpac inside the cartridge, dodging neon bullet curtains and blasting anything that moves. Zaxtron EXPLUS blends chunky retro charm with modern shmup intensity for that perfect just‑one‑more‑credit hit.

 Why You’ll Love It

  • Six Ways to Wreck: Pick from 6 distinct weapons, each with a satisfying alternate fire to carve lanes, erase swarms, or crack boss armor when the screen gets spicy.

  • Modes for Any Mood:

    • Normal Mode – learn patterns, build confidence, and rack up medals.

    • Normal Mode 99HP - practice your runs and learn bullet patterns with a chunky 99HP to spend.

    • Hard Mode – denser bullet curtains and razor‑thin dodges for score fiends.

    • Boss Rush – a non‑stop gauntlet of dream lords like Cloudy Boy, Squid King, Tank King, Battleship, Volcano Russo, and more.

    • Space Monsters – a bonus, pick‑up‑and‑play tribute to the purest form of arcade bliss: classic Space Invaders vibes with modern snap.

  • Score Chaser’s Playground: Pump your multiplier, scoop medals, time your bombs, and master routes through zones like the Nature Reserve, Htoh Region, and Military Base.

  • Retro Look, Modern Feel: Crisp pixel art, screen‑filling patterns, punchy hits, and quick restarts keep the adrenaline flowing.

  • Turn It Up: A soundtrack by Filippo Game Audio (Vampire Survivors, Hill Climb Racing, LEGO® Hill Climb Adventures) supercharges every dodge with thumping, unforgettable hooks.

Whether you grew up chasing high scores or you’re discovering shmups for the first time, Zaxtron EXPLUS is built for instant fun and deep mastery.

Strap on the jetpac, boost through the dream, and show Sammy how it’s done!
