A downloadable game for Windows and Linux

Galactic Refugees is a shmup that's made to be more approachable than a lot of modern bullet hells.  It offers a real challenge at higher levels, but eases in for those who are just getting started with the genre.

If you like the music, consider buying it at ▶︎ Galactic Refugees OST | Maya Zimmerman (bandcamp.com)

The beta here is functionally complete, but has some bugs and is not the same quality as what was released on Steam at Galactic Refugees on Steam (steampowered.com)
