About Galactic Pixel Storm

Galactic Pixel Storm turns pixel art into a shooting gallery. You pilot a spacecraft through pictures built out of pixels and smash them apart with rockets, and a target is not finished until every piece of it has been shattered down to one or two pixels. Clearing a picture completely is what opens the way on to the following stage.

Your ship is not fixed. There are three unique ship types to pick from, upgrades that make your spacecraft stronger over time, and a range of power-ups that can change how a run goes. Short prompts such as Tap to continue move you between screens, and both the art and the sound effects lean fully into the retro pixel style.

How to play Galactic Pixel Storm

Objective

Smash every pixel art target with your rockets until it is reduced to one or two pixels, then move on, upgrading your spacecraft as you go.

Controls

Mobile

  • Tap: carry on when the Tap to continue prompt shows

Getting started

  1. Hold the phone vertically, since Galactic Pixel Storm plays in a portrait frame on every device.
  2. Choose one of the three ship types to fly, keeping in mind that each one is different.
  3. Fly into the first pixel art target and fire rockets at it, breaking the picture down piece by piece.
  4. Keep shooting until the picture is down to one or two pixels, then tap when the Tap to continue prompt appears.
  5. Upgrade your spacecraft whenever you get the chance, and pick up power-ups as they turn up during play.

Tips

  • The goal is to reduce each piece to one or two pixels, so go back for chunks that survive a first rocket hit.
  • Try all three ship types early to learn which suits the way you clear targets, then stick with it while you upgrade.
  • Save a power-up for a large or stubborn picture, where extra punch changes the most about the stage.
