Also available on Steam.

  Fire Arrow and Fire Arrow X are time attack (or 'Caravan', what used to be an important tradition in Japanese STGs in 90s) style shooters with a heavy emphasis on scoring, also known as "coffee break shmups"

  Fire Arrow (Remastered):

  • Enemy waves and various other elements are randomized. Unpredictable special events may even trigger on subsequent plays.

  • Difficulty ramps up rather quickly and the better you do, the harder it will get.

  • Collect as many medals as you can, as you progress further into the game, they will become more valuable and plentiful.

  • Novice, 3 Minute, 5 Minute modes provide varying levels of challenge as well as a potentially greater variety of enemies and bosses to encounter. There is also a special unlockable mode that provides the greatest challenge.

  • Freely switch between a wide spread shot (Red) and a narrow vulcan shot (Blue) to better adapt to the situation. Unlock the bonus ship for even greater firepower!

  • Along with screen-clearing bombs, you also have a powerful DUAL ATTACK.

  NEW to 2017 version:

  • New endings!

  • More convenient menus.

  • Completely rebalanced gameplay.

  • Bonus round is now accessible by normal play on a certain mode.

  • All new original soundtrack.

  • Native gamepad support.

  Fire Arrow X :

  • This semi-sequel or semi-remake depending on how you look at it expands upon the basic gameplay of Fire Arrow while also changing up some of the rules.

  • All the same modes and explosive action... now with more enemies, crazier bosses and even greater challenges!

  • An unlockable Endless mode
