Evaluation
Super XYX launched on August 10, 2020 as a complete arcade shoot-'em-up with 6 stages, multiple characters, and unlockable modes. The developer's post-launch activity focused on a technical port rather than new content: in August 2023, Team Grybanser Fox began a public beta test to migrate the game from an older version of Game Maker Studio to Game Maker Studio 2, which also included two additions — a stage practice mode and a new unlockable ship. On November 25, 2023, the developer confirmed the port was complete and the updated build went live as the new main version of the game. There have been no developer communications since November 25, 2023, no unreleased DLC, and no roadmap or announcement of future content. The store description describes the game as a self-contained package. The game appears to have reached its final state with the completion of the GMS2 port on November 25, 2023.

About this game
Super XYX is a new shmup from the creator of Fire Arrow X, ZPF and a couple of others. Co-developed and published by Team Grybanser Fox.
Black Serpent rises...
The year is 3999, humanity has long colonized itself across the galaxy, devouring new worlds for their resources, enjoying the interstellar life of luxury, more or less friendly interactions with other alien races. That was until an ancient threat has awakened from it's slumber. The Black Serpent, the great destroyer of worlds. He's back and he's about to make the Milky Way, his greatest feast yet.
A bunch of unrelated misfits
Now, there's a bunch of heroes who are fighting back...... but they have nothing to do with saving the world.
No, they've got all their own reasons to fight Black Serpent and his forces. And there's 6 of them (4 of which are unlockable)
each with unique shots and bombs.
Tell me more about what's in this thing
- 6 Stages....? Featuring big bosses and a lot of zakos to blow up.
- Multiple unlockable game modes and characters
- A full blown YM2151 soundtrack by Epilis
- An experience calling back to the early 90s of arcade shmups!
Awesome note: You can access additional options like difficulty settings in the game, by going into options > pad/keyboard settings > more options!
