Star Guard is a faithful tribute to the old gaming days with awesome yet stylistic minimalistic pixel art and extremely smooth gameplay.
A masterpiece of a platform shooter!
This pixelated platform shooter has that something special extra and is overall very polished:
The graphics, the style, the effects, the sounds, the controls, the gameplay,the level design,the enemies, the boss fights…Everything in this game just feels right and it is simply a breeze to play! Damn i love platformers! AWESOME!
Once you have finished the 9 levels you unlock the trial mode in which you can go on hiscore hunt…
I have just recorded Levels 1-3 in a good time.

CONTROLS:
X – Shoot

I recommend to use a gamepad.
In order to play Star Guard with your gamepad (and any other available game) you just have to use the freeware program JoyToKey.
