About the Game

Thundering Skies is a shoot'em up inspired by the 16-bit classics of the genre. Making an appearance are the obligatory fire and ice-themed levels, giant battleships, scratchy voice samples, huge bosses and overpowered weapons that make you feel naked when you lose them - as well some less expected features.

Includes:

- 6 stages
- 2 game modes: autosave your progress or beat it in one sit with limited credits for an extra score boost
- 4 difficulty levels, including an introductory mode
- 10 Steam Achievements
- Challenging bosses and minibosses
- Online score board
- An amazing soundtrack by Bettina Calmon
- Adjustable scanlines for that lovely CRT effect
