About the Game

Shmandala is a delirious arcade-style shoot'em up choreographed to a banging soundtrack! An adaptive difficulty system means there's never any dead air as you evade, shoot, and bomb through 5 hypnagogic stages filled with strange creatures. There are no gimmicks: the only way through the Shmandala is to master the fundamentals!

Key features:

- No progression systems, your success depends on your skill alone

- 5 stages set in uncanny dreamscapes, choreographed to an original soundtrack

- The adaptive difficulty system matches your aggression: if you want a fight, you'll get one!

- Simple and intuitive hi-/loscoring system that rewards aggressive/pacifist playstyles

- Practice mode lets you repeat any part of the game: prepare a virtuosic performance!

- Local and online leaderboards, but never forget your greatest rival: yourself!

- Fast and smooth visuals from your deepest, darkest digital dreams

- An old-school arcade experience: all killer, no filler. Death is a teacher!
