Interstellar Galaxy Rescue is a 2D space rescue prototype game made in Game Maker Studio 2. The inspiration of the game was influenced heavily by Galaga in terms of aesthetics and feel. The gameplay however plays more like an interstellar escort mission. The objectives of the player are to safely harbor inhabitants of a dying planet under attack to a safe planet nearby. The player must protect the mother ship by maintaining shields and piloting the smaller fighter ship to fight off enemy ships. What makes this game unique is the movement which makes the player feel like they are piloting a ship through space.
