Game summary
Super XYX is a new shmup from the creator of Fire Arrow X, ZPF and a couple of others. Co-developed and published by Team Grybanser Fox.
Black Serpent rises...
The year is 3999, humanity has long colonized itself across the galaxy, devouring new worlds for their resources, enjoying the interstellar life of luxury, more or less friendly interactions with other alien races. That was until an ancient threat has awakened from it's slumber. The Black Serpent, the great destroyer of worlds. He's back and he's about to make the Milky Way, his greatest feast yet.
A bunch of unrelated misfits
Now, there's a bunch of heroes who are fighting back...... but they have nothing to do with saving the world.
No, they've got all their own reasons to fight Black Serpent and his forces. And there's 6 of them (4 of which are unlockable)
each with unique shots and bombs.
Tell me more about what's in this thing
- 6 Stages....? Featuring big bosses and a lot of zakos to blow up.
- Multiple unlockable game modes and characters
- A full blown YM2151 soundtrack by Epilis
- An experience calling back to the early 90s of arcade shmups!
Awesome note: You can access additional options like difficulty settings in the game, by going into options > pad/keyboard settings > more options!

Play Super XYX on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)
The easiest way to play Super XYX on a Mac is through Parallels, which allows you to virtualize a Windows machine on Macs. The setup is very easy and it works for Apple Silicon Macs as well as for older Intel-based Macs.
Parallels supports the latest version of DirectX and OpenGL, allowing you to play the latest PC games on any Mac. The latest version of DirectX is up to 20% faster.
Our favorite feature of Parallels Desktop is that when you turn off your virtual machine, all the unused disk space gets returned to your main OS, thus minimizing resource waste (which used to be a problem with virtualization).
Super XYX installation steps for Mac
Step 1
Go to Parallels.com and download the latest version of the software.
Step 2
Follow the installation process and make sure you allow Parallels in your Mac’s security preferences (it will prompt you to do so).
Step 3
When prompted, download and install Windows 10. The download is around 5.7GB. Make sure you give it all the permissions that it asks for.
Step 4
Once Windows is done installing, you are ready to go. All that’s left to do is install Super XYX like you would on any PC.
