Zyraxxus is a space shoot-em-up game for multiple players. Each player controls a ship and competes to shoot and destroy all the other ships in a free-for-all shootout. There are four ships in the game to choose from. Each ship has unique characteristics, but all ships have a primary blaster and a secondary weapon. The primary weapon recharges quickly while the secondary recharges more slowly. A ship will explode once its health has been depleted to zero.
