Celebrate our fifth birthday and shoot for the stars--for free!

Our fifth birthday celebrations continue with the addition of a new free game to the catalog: Stargunner, a frenetic Sci-Fi side-scrolling classic shooter, is now on GOG.com!

In a distant galaxy of Andromeda an epic struggle between two planets is drawing to a close. The greedy, powerful Zilions are gathering an almighty fleet to destroy, once and for all, a neighboring civilization of Ytimians. When their army takes flight, there is nothing that can stop them from annihilating Ytima. Unless you--one of the elite squad of Stargunners--can cripple their immense forces while they are still stationed at strongholds scattered on the surface of Zile. The challenge, even for a special forces pilot like you, is daunting. So get your laser cannons charged and lead your swift spacecraft to victory!

Stargunner is an exceptionally well-crafted Sci-Fi shooter with fast-paced action and explosive boss fights. You will have to battle over 75 unique, fully-rendered and animated enemy ships in diverse environments: in space, on the planet's Zile mountainous surface, even underwater, with plenty of weapons, shields, and power-ups available to boost your craft. With fitting soundtrack and--for the time of its original release--ground-breaking pre-rendered 3D graphics, which made the game one of the most beautiful and detailed shooters of the 90s, Stargunner is a sure-fire pick for classic shoot 'em up fans!

Blast through the almighty Zilion fleet in this frantic space extravaganza, get your free copy of Stargunner on GOG.com!
Thanks GOG! ^_^

[/Brit in-jokes]
Nope spend all my monies here in gog.com.
(politics I hate the fact poor people are being taxed so much)
thanks for a free game!
Never heard of that game, but shooters (or shmups as is it called today) were not my cup of tea. Nevertheless, it's very nice to get another free oldie and give other genres another try, so thanks ;-)

AdamR: Language warning

Looks like fun. Looks like R-Type a little. Thanks, GOG!
Yeah I stole the idea from him but I forgot this name and the video
Aww, you're so good to us GOG! It's your birthday and yet you are the one giving *us* gifts. <3
Nice - thanks, GOG, for a free game! :)
1996 space shooter ? Count me in! THX!
Thanks GoG!
Thanks GOG

Free always sells well ;)
This will be free forever, right?
I don't see you mention any time period when this stops being free.
Nooooooooooooo....., why is it that when gog has something for free I already have it?

htown1980: Has anyone played this?
I have (still got the CD).

Stargunner is pretty fast-paced (in my opinion at least), got three different settings (space, land, and underwater), good music, a nice selection weapons and enemies, and hidden treasures (look for the sparkling). For the controls I prefer the keyboard. Gamepads always felt a little slow in comparison. Overall, I'd say Stargunner isn't quite as good as Tyrian, but it is still pretty good in it's own right.
thanks GOG!

you knew my favorite price. ^_^
Thanks gog for new releases and new free games! You are spoiling us!! You should be getting gifts or least we should be throwing out more money at you!! And it looks like gog has way much better birthday celebrations than Steam!

All the best guys and live long and prosper!!
