What is Pixel Galaxy?

This bullet hell game starts you as a white pixel facing randomized enemy waves. You dodge incoming fire and attach enemy pixels as armor and weapons, balancing added firepower against reduced maneuverability while keeping your core intact.

For you if...

  • +you want local co-op with a friend
  • +you like boss rush challenges and multiple difficulty settings

Not for you if...

  • −you prefer forgiving action with little need for dodging
