Space Moves

About

Space Moves is a retro action game where you command a quad through perilous missions to sabotage an alien space station threatening Earth. You navigate war-torn levels, fighting waves of enemies and environmental hazards to infiltrate enemy bases, steal a spacecraft, and launch a counterattack. Gameplay mixes fast shooting and timing-heavy platforming, with escalating difficulty that demands precision and perseverance. The game started as a 2015 retro dev contest entry but got a major overhaul five years later, adding stages, enemies, and refined visuals with help from collaborators. Its pixel-perfect boss battles and punishing challenge curves have earned it a cult following among retro enthusiasts. Despite its 8-bit roots, the game’s tight mechanics and relentless energy make it a standout throwback.

Storyline

Since a few days ago a red star has appeared in the sky.The beauty of this astronomical phenomenon actually hides a terrible danger. What appears from the surface of our planet as a new star is actually an enemy weapon: a gigantic space station capable of reducing entire continents to dust in a matter of seconds. Your mission is to reach the interior of the enemy space station orbiting our planet. Once inside you will receive new instructions. First you must infiltrate enemy territory on the back of your quad armed with a high performance cannon until you reach the point where our intelligence systems believe they have located a space aircraft. You must get your hands on it if it really exists. It is our only hope to reach space in time. If you manage to get hold of the enemy airship, you will have to find out how it works, leave our planet and fly to the space station.
