Gunstar Heroes

Developer: Treasure

Gunstar Heroes is a blisteringly fast run-and-gun from Treasure for the Sega Mega Drive/Genesis that blends manic action with inventive weapon combos and cooperative chaos. Players blast through varied, often surreal stages filled with tight platforming, massive scripted set pieces, and relentless boss encounters that demand memorization, timing, and quick reflexes. Pick up and fuse weapons, dash, and chain attacks in frantic two-player co-op or solo runs, with fluid controls and standout pixel art that still crackles with energy. A defining, replayable arcade classic for anyone who loves bold design and unapologetic, old-school challenge.
