The game offers all the familiar tropes of the genre, simplified and condensed into short sessions, while retaining the essence and excitement of space shooters: 

  • Endless high score chaser.
  • Short game sessions.
  • Very simple controls: left-right axis only and auto-fire.
  • Focus on quick reaction time, and getting ‘in the flow’.
  • Heavily randomised progression.
  • Original power-ups that stack up in ever changing combinations.
  • Three boss fights

Coming 27th February 2025! The first major content update is underway, and will be available soon. It will feature new spaceships and power-ups to unlock.

Each new spaceship comes with its own permanent modifier and 2 exclusive power-ups (for a total of 8 new original power-ups!).

Other new features include some accessibility settings, with visibility enhancing options and even an EASY MODE.

And finally, the game now has controller support!
