Top-down shooter sounds like your cup of tea? You have to check out this one then – BroodStar is now out on GOG together with its Soundtrack, and both titles are launching with a -30% launch discount until April 1st, 2 PM UTC!

BroodStar is a classic arcade shmup with roguelike elements. Acquire crazy item combos, encounter strange events and fight challenging bosses on a quest to destroy the living planet, the BroodStar.

Now on GOG!
Can't help to think of "Sinistar", hahah. Looks fun.
Ist this playable with mouse only or has one to use a controller for that game?
Anyone else who read "Broodwar"?

Being thinking/suggesting of StarBrood instead; likely already taken by an obscure IP.

Dear sir, you're NOT alone :)
This looks fun, but I'm already getting a headache just thinking about how badly I'll handle the controls at my age lol.

I miss the days (weekends) when I could play hours on end at the arcade...

Looks like you can buy the soundtrack separately from the game. Is this a new thing at Gog or an error?

[EDIT] No offline installers for the game itself at this time.

I believe it's extremely rare, but iirc you can do that with the Obduction soundtrack too (though in that case, the soundtrack is a totally different publisher). I'm not sure of any other instances.

You can play it mouse only, but you'll probably need a mouse with more buttons than average in order to map all the keys to said mouse.

Totally, got quite confused there for a moment.
I was thinking of DemonStar, which I found out was made by the Raptor guy.

Ah, thanks for the info.

Yup. I played the demo via eGames over 2 decades ago. BTW, unless something changed, he's working on bringing modern versions (though I think Raptor will include a "1994" version) to stores including GOG.
