About Horizon Shift 81

TIGA 2019 Awards Nominee in the "Best Arcade Game" and "Game of the Year" categories.



Horizon Shift '81 is an explosive wave based single screen shooter (shmups) with a real Retro feel to it. You can even play the game in Tate screen mode!

The player controls a ship in the centre of the screen, enemies approach from the top and bottom and the player is able to switch up and down to deal with the encroaching hoard.

Different enemies react differently when they reach the horizon, some sit on the horizon, some destroy sections of the horizon and some run up and down the horizon. The player is equipped with a dash attack where they can knock enemies off the horizon and smash them into other incoming enemies for a score bonus. Dashing an enemy of the line refills the dash metre allowing for ‘Dash chaining’, this is where the big points are scored.

The player is also able to jump (jumping upside down is an interesting new challenge) and is equipped with a bomb which wipes the screen of enemies as well as restoring the horizon.

Just like in the arcade parlours of old, the inclusion of Global Leaderboards will keep players coming back time and time again in pursuit of that #1 spot!



"...It's also an exceptional sequel that not only improves on the original, but fully realizes the potential of its killer gimmick." A- Defunct games

“I went into this game with high hopes, and they were all met. I didn’t come across a single thing I didn’t like.” - 9/10 - The Insatiable Gamer

"...if you have the itch for some old-school arcade blast-em-up fun, Horizon Shift '81 is a great way to feed that craving." - 8/10 - The Sixth Axis

"This is one of the most charming takes on the shmup genre yet." - 8/10 - Cubed3

"...if you’re into shoot-em-ups and enjoy a good challenge, and particularly if you have a soft spot for retro games and indie games, the incredibly well-together package presented by “Horizon Shift ’81” is a compelling one..." - 8.2/10 - Infinite Frontiers

Most common FAQs when buying Horizon Shift 81 for PC in digital format:

It is a key that will allow you to download the game Horizon Shift 81 on your PC from official download platforms.
As of 03/10/2026, in United States, the best price we have found in our selection of online stores that include the key for Horizon Shift 81 on PC is €1.72 (no fees).
The Steam Key format is what we always recommend due to its ease of use and higher security compared to any other format. You just need to redeem the key in your account to download Horizon Shift 81 to your game library. The account format requires more complicated steps and is more prone to errors during activation.
The only issue we’ve encountered in 13 years is receiving a duplicate key that doesn’t work. In that case, simply contact the store where you bought Horizon Shift 81, and they will provide a new key. You can also contact us, and we’ll help you out.
Delivery times vary by store. For example, in the case of Instatgaming, Eneba, G2a, or Kinguin, delivery is usually instant or takes just a few minutes. These stores rarely delay game deliveries.

Other stores may take 30–40 minutes depending on game availability. On release days, delivery times may be slightly longer.

If you notice an unusually long delay, contact the store or us, and we’ll resolve it as quickly as possible.
At Gocdkeys, we only list the most well-known stores that have passed our quality checks. One of the most important factors is good customer support, and all listed stores offer it.

There have been occasions when those services were overwhelmed, which is why we also offer 24/7 customer support to help resolve any issues or questions.

In any case, we always offer a 100% guarantee, so you won’t have any problems, and if you do, we’ll resolve them as soon as possible.
