About This Demo

Face an alien onslaught in Zaxoid, an adrenaline inducing, twin-stick mayhem shooter! Defend the galaxy from relentless invaders by upgrading your ship or fortifying your city with strategic choices that make every run unique. Wield dual joysticks for precision chaos, transform into tank mode to repel surface invasions, and protect your population. Intense gameplay that takes you back to the golden years of gaming.

This demo version gives you a taste of the action with:

  • 2 playable characters – each with their own style and abilities

  • 2 planets to defend – where you’ll put both ship and tank modes to the test

  • Core progression loop – upgrade your ship, build defenses, and survive the onslaught

Precision Combat, Pure Adrenaline

Grab your gamepad and lock in for an old-school, twin-stick adrenaline rush. Snap-tight controls, razor-sharp movement, and nonstop enemies combine to recreate the feeling of standing at a neon-lit arcade cabinet. Every encounter becomes a test of timing, twitch reflexes, and pure arcade instincts.

Endless Combinations, Infinite Chaos

Score epic upgrades for your ship and city, crafting a unique build every run. Augment your systems with experimental tech, channel energy through exotic weapons, and reinforce your city’s defenses with an evolving suite of enhancements. Adapt fast or get overwhelmed.

Hold the Line Against the Swarm

Build turrets, cloning facilities, and space programs to protect your population. Strengthen your city one structure at a time, layering automated defenses and powerful upgrades to withstand relentless enemy assaults.

Conquer the Stars, Hold Your Ground

Take on missions that shift between intense space dogfights and heavy ground combat. Pilot your strike ship in orbit, then roll out in a fortified tank for planet-side warfare. Each mission tests a different skillset as you battle across both fronts.
