Aerostar vs Pulstar

After the Sixth World War, Earth becomes a barren battlefield. The Intergalactic Council sends a lone fighter, Aerostar, to protect humanity’s effort to rebuild the planet against thriving mutants. The game delivers fast‑paced, side‑scrolling action with a variety of weapons and challenging boss encounters, capturing the classic arcade feel of early‑90s shooters.

Pulstar is a classic side‑scrolling shooter set in a devastated Solar System, where you pilot the Dino246 to fend off alien invaders. The game blends arcade action with strategic weapon management, featuring a dual‑half power bar for charged blasts and rapid fire. The visuals rely on pre‑rendered 3D graphics and cinematic cut‑scenes, while co‑operative play lets two pilots tackle the hostile waves together. Collect power‑ups, use the trailing orb to deflect enemy fire, and survive the relentless onslaught.
