Hi,

Looking for a game kind of top-down space shooter. I have played this game in 2002-2003 but cant remember the name of the game.

It was vertical space shooter game whereas player controls a tiny space ship. Ship movement direction was left to the right or vise versa. Also there were powerups. After 3 or 4 powerups ship was firing arcs (at the beginning it was regular bullet)

Name of game starting with galaxy or something like that (If Im not wrong) and graphics were very good like 3d graphics. Game playing was like star defender 2.

Any help would be appreciated
Thanks

Was this on PC or another platform? Your description makes me think of Xevious (although I don't recall the powerups - but that was a long time ago).

One of the Raiden games, maybe?

The ship was able to move to left or right n not up direction. Actually it is similar to star defender 2 but not same game so its not raiden games.

Flying Tigers? It's a bit old though

Edit: never mind; if it's a Windows XP game, it's not this one.

Scavanger?

This game was nice for casual play!!!
I still play it.

Demonstar?
Here is a second video of Demonstar with spreading bullets.

Edit: Probably not, since you can move freely in all directions in Demonstar.

Maybe Galaxy Guard?
Crusaders of Space?

Lin545: Astromenace.
different game perspective. It was topdown space themed shooter game. Graphics seems similar but game was 2d.

Gradius V perhaps?
