Space Ranger ASK

About

Space Ranger ASK is a fast paced shoot em up where you take control of a space ranger navigating through hundreds of levels. Blast asteroids rescue stranded spacemen and destroy enemy UFOs while managing resource collection and fending off boss battles. The game mixes action with light strategy elements as you upgrade your ship and manage limited ammo between waves. Each level introduces new hazards and objectives that keep the gameplay varied despite the repetitive core loop. The standout feature is the mission editor which lets you design custom levels and share them with others. Player created content has led to a steady stream of new challenges from the community since release. While the base game offers solid replay value the editor extends it significantly. The 2016 release still holds up for those looking for a no frills arcade shooter with a strong modding component.
