Akka Arrh combines the intrigue of an incredibly rare Atari arcade prototype with the unique creative vision of Jeff Minter to deliver a wave shooter that is insanely fun to play. Akka Arrh drips with Minter’s sense of humor, his love of psychedelic color and light, and his ability to flat-out create games that are a joy to play.

Akka Arrh is the name of your star cannon, which you control from a fixed turret called the Sentinel. Your mission is to keep enemies from penetrating the Sentinel’s perimeter. If any of them slip through, you zoom into the lower field and take them out. Once cleared, zoom back out and continue defending.

Features:

• Pure arcade gameplay: The game throws the player directly into the action, where their only goals are to achieve combos, high scores, and survival.
• Chain lightning: Players can create massive chains of enemy explosions to rack up ammo for precision shots, which will keep their combo and rings (or life force) protected. Losing them all will result in game over.
• 50 action-packed levels: The game offers 50 unique levels, and players can start from the beginning or pick up where they left off to power through to the end.
• Accessibility: The game is sensitive to flashing lights and offers an option to disable intense visual effects, ensuring that a wider audience can enjoy the game.
• Legendary designer: The game is designed by Jeff Minter, who brings his signature style to a modern adaptation of the lost Atari arcade prototype.
• Psychedelic experience: Players will enjoy lush, colorful visuals and patterns as they defend their Sentinel tower from enemy attack.
