Zenon Mega Blast

Zenon Mega Blast was one of those straightforward shooters you'd find during the Flash era. It appeared online when browser games were a common way to pass time, offering a quick session without much setup. The game didn't try to be more than it was, which was part of its appeal.

You control a small ship viewed from above, moving it with the mouse to dodge incoming fire. Your goal is to clear each planet by destroying all enemy structures on its surface. You click to fire your main weapon at ground targets, while also managing threats from enemy ships that fly in from the edges of the screen. The pace is constant, with new targets appearing as old ones are cleared, and the difficulty comes from the screen quickly filling with projectiles. It feels like a focused test of your aim and positioning under steady pressure.
