Stargunner is a 1996 horizontal scrolling shooter computer game published by Apogee Software (3D Realms).

Its three episodes each followed a specific setting with complementary enemies (space, land, and underwater).

In total there are 33 levels, known as Stages, to play in Stargunner, divided into four separate parts or episodes:

Episode 1 - Scout Mission
Episode 2 - Stellar Attack
Episode 3 - Terran Assault
Episode 4 - Aquatic Combat

The player controls a craft on a horizontal perspective going to the right. Enemies can approach from in front, from behind, from below or from above. They can be either lone flyers or formation ships. The maps have a linear quality in which enemies and power-ups appear at the same time and the same place, as is common with side-scrolling shooters. Gameplay is notably differentiated by high numbers of enemies and power-ups.

Whilst flying, the player can pick up multiple bonuses and upgrades, including:

Credit Crystals
Weapon Upgrades
Credit/Mega Credit
Invincibility
Extra Life
Nuke
Shield There is also a "mystery" item, which randomly becomes one of the other items when taken.

There are many items which the player can buy at the shop, each of which belong to one of the following categories:

Engines
Weapons
Satellites
Extra lives
Nukes
