Super Star Path: A Unique and Addictive Puzzle-Shooter Hybrid
Super Star Path is a unique and addictive game that combines the classic color match puzzle with the excitement of a space shoot’em up. Developed by Japanese studio Grezzo and published by Nintendo, Super Star Path was released for the Nintendo 3DS in 2015.
The game’s story is simple: you play as a spaceship pilot tasked with defending the galaxy from an alien invasion. To do this, you must use your ship’s color-matching cannon to clear a path through waves of enemies and obstacles.
The gameplay is a mix of puzzle and action. To clear a path, you must match three or more orbs of the same color. When you do, the orbs will explode, damaging or destroying any enemies or obstacles in their vicinity. You can also collect power-ups that give you special abilities, such as the ability to fire homing missiles or create temporary shields.
As you progress through the game, the levels become increasingly difficult. You’ll face more and more enemies, and the obstacles will become more challenging to navigate. You’ll also have to contend with boss battles, which are intense and require quick thinking and reflexes.
Despite the challenge, Super Star Path is a very rewarding game. The sense of satisfaction you get from clearing a difficult level is immense. And the game’s charming visuals and catchy music make it a joy to play.
Gameplay
Super Star Path is played from a top-down perspective. You control your spaceship with the left analog stick and fire your cannon with the A button. You can also use the shoulder buttons to activate power-ups.
The game’s levels are procedurally generated, so they’re always different. This keeps the game fresh and challenging, even after you’ve played it for hours on end.
There are a variety of different enemies in Super Star Path, each with their own unique abilities. Some enemies will fire projectiles at you, while others will try to ram your ship. You’ll also have to contend with obstacles such as asteroids and laser beams.
