Missile Dancer 2D frenetic action shooter pilot fighter jets to infiltrate the enemy base on Nintendo Switch

Created by TERARINGAMES, the Japanese developer behind the sci-fi action game Gemini Arms, Missile Dancer features frenetic 2D action where players pilot fighter jets to infiltrate the enemy base and stop them before the end.

On a different take on the shmup genre, the bullets of your fighter jet won’t damage the enemy. Instead, they’re your best option against the incoming attacks! To destroy your enemies, you will need to expand your radar and lock on them to shoot them down with a mighty missile strike!

You can increase the range of your lock-on radar and the number of missiles with bonus items after defeating enemies. Don't be hit!
