About Rick Henderson

Rick Henderson is a side-scrolling, infinite shooter inspired by the glory days of the arcade. Pilot one of three ships, master 27 distinct weapons, and take on five enemy factions (each with their own brutal bosses). Every run is unique, every explosion stylish, and every track is pulsing with neon-lit synthwave energy. Think 16-bit nostalgia meets modern chaos.
