SynthEscape

A Synthwave bullet hell shoot 'em up where grazing enemy fire charges your bullet-slowing field and builds your score. Play through 5 levels in solo or co-op with leaderboard support. '80s vibes meet precision shmup gameplay. Graze Bullets. Bend Time. Break the Future.

<h2 class="bb_tag" ><strong>CLASSIC SHMUP ACTION WITH A BULLET-BENDING TWIST</strong></h2><p class="bb_paragraph" >SynthEscape is a horizontal scrolling shoot 'em up built around a risk/reward graze mechanic. Fly dangerously close to enemy bullets to charge your ship. Each graze expands your time-manipulating, bullet-slowing field and pushes your combo higher.  Chain grazes together, grow your energy field, and turn bullet hell into controlled chaos. </p><h2 class="bb_tag" ><strong>BREAK THE FUTURE</strong></h2><p class="bb_paragraph" >Humanity has been subjugated and imprisoned under a ruthless AI and its endless machine army. But one teenager refuses to bow. They steal the forbidden DLRN-88, a prototype reality-bending weapon developed by the machines themselves. Attaching it to their own scrapped-together starship, they launch a desperate mission to escape their dystopian city and destroy the central AI core in orbit.</p><h2 class="bb_tag" ><strong>FEATURES</strong></h2><ul class="bb_ul"><li><p class="bb_paragraph" ><strong>5 Levels of Neon-Soaked Rebellion</strong>: Battle through the dystopian city, race across ocean highways at sunset, infiltrate a forgotten factory beneath the mountains, ascend the space elevator, and <i>destroy the core</i> in orbit.
