2D side-scrolling shoot 'em up
Gearbits: Gear Angels
SteamGearbits: Gear Angels is a 2D side-scrolling shoot 'em up. You must defeat the invading alien fleet to save the planet! Your shield will protect you and your weapons can blow away entire squadrons of alien ships. The catch is, your energy depletes fast. You'll be in trouble if it runs out! The shield won't protect you and your attack power is reduced. But at maximum energy, you can fire powerful shots that pierce enemies and shrug off lethal hits with ease!

You have to keep moving at all times! Evading the enemy is not enough! You also have to collect energy to counterattack!

You can choose from three different characters. Each one has unique parameters to shake up the gameplay.

After successfully clearing the game, you can transfer your save file, to unlock new characters in Gearbits.
