    Overview

    No Caption Provided

    Legacy of the Elder Star is a shoot 'em up for PC, Mac, and Linux. It's billed as "a shoot 'em up for the rest of us" with a focus on accessibility and bringing in an audience that may normally be intimidated by shmups.

    Gameplay

    The gameplay is completely mouse-driven: moving the mouse moves the Cosmonaut with 1:1 precision. Mouse sensitivity can be adjusted any time by rolling the mouse wheel. Weapons are fired with the left button and specials with the right button, and after charging up enough energy, a super can be triggered by pressing both buttons together. Additional weapons and special abilities unlock over time.

    The story mode consists of five stages. There are also additional modes to unlock: practice, boss rush, and a randomized daily challenge. The daily challenges are re-rolled every 24 hours, are the same for every player, and have their own leaderboard for each day.
