James Swiney has announced the upcoming launch of Void-X, his bullet hell shooter with pixel-art graphics coming to iOS devices across the globe on June 8th. The developer known for Aruna’s Adventure and the Hectic Space is bringing players a "no-apologies" arcade shoot 'em up that will challenge their skills until they reach that coveted high score.

In Void-X, players can expect to take on nine bosses that progressively get harder and harder with their own unique challenges. Players can also acquire different powerups to help boost their survivability out there - this includes automated defences, special beams and homing missiles.

The game challenges you to dodge bullets, take down foes and survive for as long as you possibly can while keeping your combo going to nab that ultimate high score. It also boasts lovely pixel art graphics, controller support, autosaving functions, Game Center achievements as well as 120 FPS support. Plus, the game lets you adjust the sensitivity for touch inputs and for the controller to suit your playstyle best.
