About this game

It’s year 104 of Universal Galactic Calendar; after the destruction of the Earth, human survivors are scattered all over the universe, trying to persevere in the hostile environment of the war-torn outer space. Join the fight as one of the pilots born post-Exodus, travelling through galaxies in search for their meaning of life. Help other survivors, solve the mysteries and fight - all in order to escape from the universe! • Wide variety of enemies will test your skillfulness and challenge you to adjust to ever-changing conditions. • Save one person or save millions? Your decisions can have a lasting influence on the whole galaxy. • Shooting isn't always the way to win - chase your enemies, avoid the obstacles, or leave your trusted spaceship and infiltrate hostile territory on foot. • Limited palette of clean, flat colors combined with an otherworldly soundtrack create a retro feast for the eyes and ears.
