Each Nodeshifter comes fully equipped with a rapidly orbiting Node capable of summoning destruction at a scale the likes of which has been heretofore unseen.

Sure, it may be in pixels, but that doesn’t make it any less metal. To become a Star Defender pilot takes guts, skill, and bravery. But if you are selected to be a part of this elite alien fighting space force then your name will be etched in the stars of valor forever. Power-Up Your Play Style: Acquire unique and game-changing Enhancements for your Shifter that will dramatically alter your strategy and play style for the run. Try out new combinations for punishing results. Even Loss is Progress: Pick up Saalt from your fallen foes to purchase Cassettes that will give you a competitive advantage in future runs. These power-ups are permanent upgrades that can be chosen to better fit your uniquely preferred play style and preference. New Paths of Destruction Every Time: Every level of Nodeshifter is dynamically generated so that your pixel carnage is fresh every time you play. It’s so timeless, it’s practically undead!
