Space Renegades: The Series

Space Renegades: The Series is a top-down 2D space shooter that consists of two games. In Space Renegades 1, you play as a Space Ranger named Adam. Adam decides to be a self-employed Space Ranger. In the mean time a mob boss named Lord Art puts out a bounty on him dead or alive.

In Space Renegades 2: Ultimatum, you continue your quest as Adam. Lord Art wants Adam to join his gang, but Adam refuses. Art then kidnaps Adam's family with an ultimatum for Adam to either join him or watch his family die.

The first game is a Space Invaders clone, while the second has frantic vertical-scrolling gameplay. Rather than losing lives after you die, you lose money. Once you run out of money you lose the game. You can also go to the shop and upgrade your weapons to create some major havoc.
