Equip new ships and Charge Cores, then unleash a massive beam that wipes out enemy fire!
Race across the stars and destroy waves of enemies and powerful bosses in a fast-paced pixel-art space shooter. Drag to move freely, then combine distinctive ships, weapons, and abilities to create your own combat style.
SHIPS THAT CHANGE HOW YOU PLAY
Every ship has different power, fire rate, lives, and movement performance. Unlocked ships can move vertically, horizontally, and diagonally, and each comes with a unique ability.
A CHARGE BEAM THAT ERASES ENEMY FIRE
Equip a Charge Core and hold the play area to build energy. Release to fire a massive beam whose duration depends on your charge time. The beam damages enemies and cancels enemy projectiles in its path.
CUSTOMIZE YOUR ARSENAL
Equip different shot types, ship colors, and Charge Cores. Rare cores cost a large amount of gameplay coins, but can be upgraded after you unlock them.
