Defend Earth in Promethium: A Retro Shoot 'Em Up Challenge!

The Promethium armada threatens Earth, leaving a trail of destruction. As Commander Braybrook, you pilot the experimental deep space fighter, humanity's last hope. It's your mission to stop the invasion in this thrilling, retro-inspired shoot 'em up.

Inspired by Arcade and C64 Classics

Promethium draws inspiration from classic Commodore 64 and arcade games, delivering a challenging, side-scrolling shooter experience. Navigate multiple levels that increase in difficulty, demanding precision and skill. If you seek a casual game, prepare for a test of your abilities!

Intense Gameplay

Engage in intense dogfights against the Promethium armada. Each warship is protected by shield generators that must be hacked and disabled. Hover over these generators to initiate the hack. Success results in the destruction of the warship. But beware, squadrons of enemy fighters swarm the skies, guarding their commanders!

Strategic Power-Ups

Destroy enemy ships to acquire power pods, your in-game currency. Spend this to purchase various power-ups at the bottom of the screen. The next purchasable power-up is highlighted in orange. Experiment, upgrade, and devise your perfect strategy for survival. Some upgrades serve single-use, some are multiple and some are timed!

Precise Controls

Master the controls to lead humanity to victory. Promethium supports both joypad and keyboard input. Using the joypad is highly recommended for optimal control, keyboard controls demand ninja like reflexes.

Use the analog stick or D-pad to move your ship with the joypad, otherwise use the keyboard WASD or arrow keys.

Fire your lasers using the triggers, bumpers, or the 'B' (Xbox) / 'O' (PlayStation) button. Keyboard commanders can rely on the space bar to fire.

Purchase power-ups by pressing 'A' (Xbox) / 'X' (PlayStation) on a joypad, or any key other than WSAD, Space bar or cursor keys on the keyboard. The return key is suggested.
