## What is GLOWDRIFT?

GLOWDRIFT is a twenty-minute roguelite survivor. Your ship fires by itself: you steer, dodge and decide what to become.

EVERY RUN IS A NEW BUILD
Each level offers a draft of three upgrades: a new weapon, a weapon level, an item or a stat. A level-six weapon plus its key item at level three turns into an evolution that changes how the whole fight looks.

A RUN WITH A SHAPE
Elite waves arrive every two minutes and leave a chest once every marked elite is down. Bosses come at minutes 5, 10, 15 and 19: the first three open a shop, the last one decides the run. The floor is not safe either: toxic pools, hot plates and slow fields appear during the run and work on the swarm as much as on you.

PROGRESS THAT STAYS
Shards you earn, win or lose, go into a permanent upgrade tree with a full refund on respec. Unlock seven operatives with their own starting weapons and perks, clear sixteen challenges and climb five threat levels. Sixteen weapons, sixteen evolutions and twenty-eight items are tracked in the collection.

MADE FOR A PHONE
Drag anywhere on the left half of the screen to move; the joystick appears under your finger. Tap the dash button or the right half of the screen to dash through the crowd. Weapons fire automatically. Portrait and landscape are both supported.

FREE, NOTHING TO BUY
No ads, no in-app purchases, no account and no internet connection required. English and Russian.
