About PROTECT MIEKO
PROTECT MIEKO by gattenshochi is a retro-style shoot-'em-up in development with a brilliant R-Type riff: what if you could fly the Force pod yourself? Your ship IS the shield — position yourself to protect Mieko, an '80s anime pilot girl, through the bullet storm.
Five screenshots show the shmup in action. Made with Godot; still in development but already flying.
How to Play
Pilot your ship as Mieko's living shield — intercept bullets and enemies aimed at her while the formation fights back.
Controls
Arrow keys / WASD – move
See the original itch.io page for the developer's control notes.
Tips & Tricks
You're the Force, not the flagship — your position matters more than your kills.
