Description

A vertical bullet-hell shooter built like a 2000s arcade cabinet: dirty, heavy, loud. Strip wrecks for weapon modules, grow your ship from Interceptor to Dreadnought and burn through 19 stages in six worlds. Solo or in 2-player co-op.

You start small: one Interceptor, one Vulcan cannon and a sky full of scrap. Mass cores torn from wrecks grow your hull through five classes, upgrade chips push your modules higher, and between stages the WORKSHOP sells you new guns. At levels 4 and 5 every weapon turns into an extreme form: a wall of fire, a screen-high lance, chain lightning, a missile swarm.

The world is rust, soot and gunmetal. The enemy bullets are the cleanest thing on screen, so the field stays readable while everything around you explodes. The stronger your loadout, the more enemies come at you, never more bullets than you can read.

Six worlds with three stages each, assembled from the run seed, plus the Singularity for flawless runs. Local co-op with two mice or one shared keyboard, LAN co-op, a standalone level editor and mod packs.
