Play Salamander 2 (ver JAA) Online
Dodge swarms of alien bullets in a tiny ship, weaving through tight gaps while chunky pixel explosions erupt around you—those screen-filling bosses won’t go down easy.

Salamander 2 (ver JAA) is a 1996 arcade shoot 'em up from Konami, playable today through MAME. It arrived late in the 16-bit era, a time when developers were pushing sprite-based action to its limits, and it shows in the sheer density of its alien onslaughts.
You pilot a small, nimble spacecraft through horizontally and vertically scrolling stages, blasting waves of insectoid enemies and dodging intricate bullet patterns. Your main goal is survival, clearing each screen of threats while collecting power-ups that enhance your main shot, add options (flanking drones), or provide protective barriers. The game is known for its aggressive pacing and screen-filling bosses that demand precise movement and quick weapon swaps. It feels like a constant, exhilarating test of reflexes and spatial awareness.
