What is Galactic Glitch?
A top-down twin-stick shooter set in mysterious, glitched star systems. In each permadeath run, you shoot enemies with destructible parts, use a gravity gun to throw rocks and incoming missiles, and collect items and upgrades as you explore.
For you if...
- +you enjoy quick, single-player fights across permadeath runs
- +you like choosing weapons and experimenting with upgrades
Not for you if...
- −you dislike starting over when a run ends
- −you want multiplayer rather than a solo shooter
