9 itemsAbout the Game
Rethink everything you've come to expect from a shooter game.
A game made by fans, for fans, Hangeki seeks to infuse a classic genre with new ideas. Utilize multiple spectacular weapons to decimate the enemy, and formulate new strategies as you take on the alien invasion in this reimagining of the classic shoot em up.
Intense arcade action
Fight against waves of enemies using a diverse arsenal of weapons. While the first levels may start out easy, the later parts of the game will pose a formidable challenge for even the most hardened shooter fan.
Highly Competitive Design
Everything in Hangeki has been designed with competitive players in mind, starting with the scoring system. All levels are scored by time. No arbitrary points. No arbitrary multipliers. Just you, your skill, and a finish line. How you get to the end is completely up to you. Will you play it safe and focus on staying alive? Or go full aggressive and burst down the waves at the risk of getting hit. Or maybe somewhere in between, the choice is yours.
Multiple Game Modes
10 main levels, over 15 challenges, Boss Rush, Endless, and extra stages. Everything you'd expect from a game like this and more.
Over 50 Weapons
Lots of weapons, each one unique. Try out different combinations and come up with your own strategies to decimate the opposition.
Local Co-op
Fight with a friend. All main levels support 2 player local co-op.
Global Leaderboards
Compete on a global scale for the best times on levels. Whether you are a seasoned bullet hell player, or a dedicated speed runner, Hangeki has been built from the ground up to be competitive. All leaderboards show the weapons other players used, facilitating a rich metagame where you can get ideas for new strategies and tactics.
Full Controller Support
Play with a keyboard. Play with a controller. Players demand the right tools, and Hangeki supports whatever your preference.
