Radient

Radient is a vector arcade shooter inspired by the classic tube shooters of the 1980s. Defend the rim of geometric webs against waves of enemies crawling from the depths. GAMEPLAY Pilot your claw ship along the rim of a web. Enemies spawn at the center and advance outward — shoot them before they reach you. Clear all enemies to warp through the tube to the next level. 16 WEB SHAPES Circle, square, triangle, star, heart, infinity, and more. Open webs like the V-shape and zigzag change the rules — no wrapping means nowhere to hide. After level 16, the cycle repeats with escalating difficulty. 7 ENEMY TYPES Flippers — crawl up lanes and chase you on the rim Tankers — absorb two hits, then split into twin flippers Spikers — leave deadly spike trails as they retreat Fuseballs — race along the rim edges at high speed Pulsars — electrify adjacent lanes with periodic pulses Mirrors — nearly invisible, striking from the shadows UFOs — erratic, hard to hit, and trigger-happy SUPERZAPPER Two charges per level. First use obliterates every enemy on screen. Second takes out one random target. Use them wisely. ARCADE CONTROLS A rotary spinner dial for precise rim movement, a rapid-fire dome button, and a superzapper trigger — designed to feel like a real arcade cabinet. Controls scale up on iPad. PURE VECTOR AESTHETIC Every line, shape, and glow is drawn in real time. No sprites, no textures — just geometry and light, faithful to the CRT vector monitors of the original arcade era. PROCEDURAL AUDIO Every sound effect and the adaptive background music are synthesized from scratch — square waves, saw waves, and noise generators. No sound files. The soundtrack accelerates as enemies close in on the rim.
