Unlike most scrolling shooters, you fly across a 3D environment – take advantage of it, and avoid colliding with walls or the ground. Also, rather than spraying adversaries with bullets, you must think ahead a little – the fuel/heat system adds dimension to combat.
Levels are procedurally created, which means that each level is slightly different each time you play it (albeit not fully random).
Energy and materials earned while completing levels can be utilised to improve and customise your dragon.
You’ll need those components and energy to construct a spaceship to escape that hostile planet.
F E A T U R E S
Explore over 100 levels spread across 5 diverse areas.
The World map is also generated procedurally. When you start a new campaign, the planet is’re-rolled.’
Use a complex scoring system to earn azure energy and resources for upgrades.
The higher your score, the better the equipment you can afford.
Unlock new difficulty levels
Higher difficulty levels introduce opponents and perils not found in ‘normal’ or ‘easy’ mode.
Upgrade and personalise your dragon
Levels unlock and enhance abilities and weapon modes in exchange for azure energy and materials. Plugin chips (dropping by bosses) can be utilised to further improve your dragon.
Test your skills on specially crafted infinite’survival’ levels.
Leaderboards rank your run on the survival level.
