Gameplay
Players control Ed as he advances through various environments such as space stations, asteroid belts, and alien planets, using an array of weapons to eliminate endless waves of space monsters. The game utilizes a top-down shooting control scheme, where players move with WASD or arrow keys and aim/shoot with the mouse. Defeated enemies drop coins and items that can be collected to upgrade weapons or purchase special abilities. As the game progresses, players must strategically combine equipment and skills to survive increasingly difficult levels. The game supports both single-player and local two-player co-op modes, allowing players to experience this wild space adventure with a friend.
