Control the battlefield in a tactical arcade shooter. Sacrifice safety, earn invincibility, slow time, and unleash a devastating beam to obliterate entire waves of enemies.

The battlefield doesn't overwhelm you all at once. It closes in until there's no escape.Samsara: Retro Man Universe is a tactical arcade shooter where you draw power from enemy fleets, commit to a dangerous charge, and unleash destruction that turns the fight in your favor.<img class="bb_img" src="https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/4081150/extras/7907bc2381f6812515fc98f97d6d6f51.avif?t=1770130357" alt="Ready &amp;gt; Charge &amp;gt; Blast " width=1560 height=115 />Destroy alien warships and collect their energy crystals. Every kill fills your Samsara meter. As formations grow denser, you face a choice: keep fighting conventionally, or commit to charging something far more powerful.Press fire and your weapons go offline. For 5 seconds you are exposed. No guns, no shields, just evasive maneuvers. One hit cancels the charge and drains your meter. Survive and your weapons return with a one-hit shield. What you do next decides everything.<img class="bb_img" src="https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/4081150/extras/8f07972a520cf0e680ea82626b899c66.avif?t=1770130357" alt="Unleash the Ultimate Weapon" width=1325 height=213 />Press fire again and time slows. You become invincible instantly. Slip through enemy fire, pass cleanly through massive warships, and line up your attack.Then the Samsara beam erupts from your ship and sweeps across the battlefield, draining your meter. Clear waves, dismantle battleships, obliterate fleets. When the meter empties, invincibility fades and you return to combat ready to strike again. As you progress, the beam lasts longer and is more devastating.<video class="bb_img" autoplay muted loop playsinline poster="https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/4081150/extras/1ff1d35aa9616ba2fa996f1d68599e26.poster.avif?t=1770130357" aria-hidden="true"width=780 height=438 ><source src="https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/4081150/extras/1ff1d35aa9616ba2fa996f1d68599e26.webm?t=1770130357" type="video/webm; codecs=vp9"><source src="https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/4081150/extras/1ff1d35aa9616ba2fa996f1d68599e26.mp4?t=1770130357" type="video/mp4"></video><h2 class="bb_tag" >The Core Loop</h2>→ Kill → Collect → Charge → Evade → Reposition → UnleashYou earn power by choosing when to make yourself vulnerable and when to unleash everything you've built.
