STARLANCE
STARLANCE2: Abyssal Revenge NOW RELEASED
STARLANCE is a neon-drenched love letter to classic arcades—then wired with roguelite rocket fuel. Slide into the cockpit, blast through cascading Galaga-style waves, and stitch together a run from risky upgrades: overclock your cannons, split your shots, trade speed for hull, and pray the jam light stays dark. Every explosion showers scrap to invest in the Hangar between runs—unlock new fighter frames, boost core systems, and chase that “one more run” high. Enemy swarms swoop in formations, stalkers warp onto your six, bombers seed gravity traps, and the Hive Lord arrives like a pixelated eclipse. CRT scanlines, crunchy particles, and thumping score counters sell the retro fantasy; fast runs, bold builds, and meta-progression keep it fresh. Strap in, pilot—STARLANCE turns old-school reflexes into new-school chaos, and the leaderboard is hungry.
UPDATE: Wave 3-5 debugged
UPDATE: Game+ mode now for pilots who continue past Wave 5

On level 3, I killed all the enemies, including the ones that just barely peek past the back of the screen, and then nothing happens. I've tried it twice and I have the same problem. And since there's no way to end, there's no meta-progression.
Thanks for report. I'll check it ou!
Fixed: enemies were flying away from the player or off screen...wave 3 and 4 should work now.
I tried it again and I'm still having the problem on wave 3.
Sorry for the issue...I ran the game all the way through several times yesterday, no problem. I'll check out the file again.
Same problem on wave 5
I didn’t have any issues this morning on wave 5. I’ll run it again,
Game updated..thanks for feedback.
