About This Game
Command your starfighter in this high-octane 2D arcade combat racer.

GAMEPLAY ELEMENTS
16-Bit Inspired High-Octane Combat Racing
Experience a modern evolution of classic top-down 2D combat arcade racers. Navigate your way through an expansive campaign featuring dozens of treacherous tracks filled with cosmic traps, lethal hazards, and sharp turns designed to test your precision handling. Blast your way through enemies, dodge plasma and laser fire, and activate your unique power-ups to survive.
A Battle for the Stars in a High Stakes Lovecraftian Story
An intergalactic war rages, and the Machine God’s lethal blockade spans the galaxy. Then, they made a fatal mistake: they took the one person you care about.
Now, you're turning the sharpest reflexes in the universe into a weapon of pure vengeance. To survive, you'll need to bargain with cosmic terrors. Prove your worth to Cthulhu, Yog-Sothoth, and the Old Gods to harness reality-bending power.
The Eternal Wheel is turning. Sever the thread of fate before existence shatters entirely.
Collect Dozens of Ships
Amass a fleet of hyper-detailed starfighters. Combat ships shoot lasers at enemies. Espionage ships are fast but fragile. Research vessels come with high resistance and many power-ups. Merchant ships allow you to trade and deliver packages. Ship choice and loadout can mean the difference between success and failure.
Customize and Build
Change the appearance of your ship. Add and remove power-ups. Scavenge rare components while racing and fuse them together to build custom ships.
Choose a Character Class
Choose from nine character classes, each with unique bonuses and disadvantages. Change them whenever you please for a small price using the Eigenstate Realignment Matrix. Combat pilots fire lasers, Engineers have powerful plasma shields, and Rogues can manipulate space-time with their gravity drives. Yog-Sothoth is happy to help you change classes at any time. For a price...
Shifting Interstellar Economies
Command your robotic companion, Lucas, to navigate a shifting "Travelling Salesman" gauntlet. Optimize flight paths through a dynamic, Elite-lite economy to trade valuable goods, bypass cosmic anomalies, and maximize your credit payout.
Cosmic Horror Meets Retro Power
impress the Great Old Ones in a high-stakes campaign spanning the dark corners of the Lovecraftian mythos. Between races, manage your ship, configure authentic vintage CRT filters, or feed your intergalactic cat, Fizzle, to uncover secret scrap. Stop the Eternal Wheel from turning, and sever the thread of fate before the sleeper awakens and reality ends.
