Aces of the Galaxy Screenshots
LONDON - 2nd June, 2008 - Experience the thrilling retro arcade space shooter "Aces of the Galaxy," and enjoy a new type of action-puzzler, "Roogoo," both launching on Xbox LIVE Arcade this Wednesday 4th June, 2008 at 09.00.
Enjoy the frantic action of "Aces of the Galaxy," an old fashioned arcade adrenaline-pumping shoot-em-up that allows players to save the Universe from the wicked Skurgian Empire. Players annihilate enemy ships with an impressive arsenal of upgradeable weapons including high-powered missile launchers, devastating torpedoes and the relentless chain gun. Battle intense waves of enemy Skurgians against a breathtaking outer space backdrop, and choose to fight alone or join up with a friend at home or via Xbox LIVE.
"Roogoo" takes puzzles to a whole new level. Help the Roogoo defeat their enemies, the evil Meemoo, in "Roogoo," a new and innovative action based-puzzler with addictive gameplay. Players line up multiple platforms on different levels to allow shaped blocks to pass through and once enough stack up, that particular shape closes off. A simple premise becomes more complicated as Meemoos begin to obstruct players' paths and butterflies attempt to steal blocks away. Players must swivel, roll and boost their way through 45 puzzle-filled levels alone or with up to four friends in cooperative party mode play. For those with a more competitive spirit, "Roogoo" offers a two-player multiplayer mode over Xbox LIVE where players battle to solve the same puzzle and can build up attacks to defeat their competitors. Where can I get theses games from? "Aces of the Galaxy" will be available worldwide for 800 Microsoft Points.
