Space Impact is an arcade shooter main game, originally released in 2006, where you customize your fighter with various weapons and components to survive ten action-packed levels against over thirty enemy types. The core loop involves dodging projectiles to charge a power meter, enabling devastating combo attacks. Beyond the single-player campaign, the game features local wireless head-to-head battles and online World Battle Mode connectivity.
