Sinistar Unleashed

Description

A remake of "Sinistar" the classic 80's arcade game.

You get sucked through a wormhole into the alternate universe of the Sinistar, where your spaceship is transformed into a strange organic living spaceship. In center of each level is a huge jumpgate that evil worker drones are busy powering up by attaching sinisite crystals to it. Once the gate is fully powered an enormous, very agressive boss monster comes out of it, the Sinistar. Your job: destroy the gate before the Sinistar can get through it. If you can't do that, delay the arrival of the Sinistar as long as possible, when it does come, destroy the Sinistar. But it won't be easy. Enemy fighters patrol the area. The Sinistar and the gate can only be harmed using a special weapon, the sini-bomb.

24 levels. Almost all of them have this structure. There are a few that are different. Each level has unique creatures, and every Sinistar is different.

To power up your ship you must mine asteroids for sinisite crystals. These will power your weapons.

There are 7 weapons: mining laser, cutting laser, photon torpedoes, long range missiles, short range missiles, concussion weapon, lightning bolt, and sinibombs

And many powerups: orbital defense turret, guard turret, shields, speed boosters, mind control, ship upgrade.
