REFLECT89

REFLECT. ADAPT. SURVIVE

REFLECT89 is a skill-based arcade shoot 'em up with a different way to fight back.

Choose CORE or AURA, rotate the reflector around your character and turn enemy projectiles against their attackers. Time your reflections perfectly to build combos and increase your score.

And when you get the Power Cannon, you can shoot back directly.

EVERY ATTACK IS AN OPPORTUNITY

Learn enemy attack patterns, position your reflector and master Perfect Reflections.

As you progress, the screen fills with more projectiles and increasingly complex attack patterns. Success depends on timing, precision and knowing when to strike.

TEN YEARS. TEN STAGES. TEN CHALLENGES

Fight through 10 uniquely themed stages, numbered from 1980 to 1989 as a tribute to classic arcade gaming. Each stage features its own setting, increasingly dangerous enemies and a unique boss to defeat.

Conquer 50 waves across the main campaign, then put your skills to the test in ENDLESS SIGNAL, where the challenge never ends.

BEAT YOUR BEST. BEAT THE WORLD

Every point counts.

Chain Perfect Reflections, improve your combos and compete for higher scores on the global Steam leaderboards.

There's always another record to beat.

CHOOSE YOUR DIFFICULTY

Three difficulty levels. Three ways to experience REFLECT89.

STABLE offers a more forgiving experience, ideal for learning the mechanics, improving your timing and mastering your reflections.

ARCADE is the intended REFLECT89 experience: a balanced challenge where every move matters.

UNSTABLE is built for expert players, with faster threats, more pressure and less room for mistakes.

Find your signal stability and see how far you can go.

UPGRADE CORE OR AURA

Surviving the signal is only part of the challenge. After each wave, choose an upgrade and adapt CORE/AURA to the threats ahead.

Improve your reflections, recover health, manipulate time, create impact waves or unlock new ways to control enemy fire. Every upgrade changes the way you play.

Choose carefully, build your setup and find the strategy that takes you further.

ENDLESS SIGNAL

The campaign ends. The challenge doesn't.

Face endless waves of enemies, survive increasingly intense projectile patterns and push your score higher with every run.

How long can you survive? How far can you climb the Steam leaderboards?

A DIFFERENT BOSS EVERY YEAR

Each stage culminates in a unique Boss designed to test your reflexes, timing and control of the reflector.

Study their patterns, withstand the pressure and wait for the perfect moment to send their attacks back. The signal grows more aggressive with every year… and so do its guardians.
