About the Game

Briefing

We have dirty work for you, Plutonium Pirates!

The Federal People's Republic is stockpiling ever growing amounts of plutonium and has become a major threat to world peace and all. As you know, all negotiations and diplomatic efforts have failed.

We're sending you guys in, under the radar, so keep the noise down.
Infiltrate enemy territory in search of plutonium stocks and nukes to abduct and get the hell out of there!

Best of luck soldier, you'll need it!

The Game

Your trusted old chopper may be showing signs of wear and tear, but its firepower is nothing short of stupendous. As you infiltrate enemy territory in search of plutonium stocks and nukes to abduct, deactivate alarms and mow down any enemy opposition you may encounter!


Plutonium Pirates takes inspiration from old-school classics like Thrust with your favorite 16-bit shoot'em up thrown in for good measure! Even though stealth is occasionally the best strategy for surviving the overwhelming amount of enemies, this is above all an action packed arcade blaster.
