Classic fixed-shooter arcade action — no timers, no energy bars. Slide your ship along the bottom and hold to fire. A formation of invaders sweeps side to side, raining bombs and stepping down with every reverse. Destroy them all to clear the wave — or let the swarm reach your line and the run ends. TWO MODES • Journey — 500 uniquely generated waves across 5 arcs and 50 chapters, with a boss every 10th level. Clear a wave to unlock the next; the fleet thins and speeds up as it falls. • Infinity — one endless run of waves. No levels, no target — just survival and a high score per difficulty. THREE DIFFICULTIES • Easy — slower fleet, wider formations, fewer colours in colour mode • Medium — faster sweep, denser bombing, more colours • Hard — fastest fleet, maximum bomb rate, full colour palette COLOUR MODE Toggle colour mode to unlock a flat invader palette. Each row of the fleet wears its own flat tint — the only colour in the entire app. Bosses carry their arc's accent; the ship, shots and bombs stay monochrome. BOSSES Every 10th level, the invader formation stands down and a single boss takes the field. Five unique arc bosses and two mini-bosses, each with scaled hit points and its own attack pattern — spread volleys, aimed shots, or a wavering bomb rain. BUNKERS Three destructible bunkers shelter the ship. Bombs and shots erode them block by block — use them wisely; once a block is gone, it is gone. LIVES SYSTEM Three lives per run. A bomb hit costs one life and clears the air briefly so you can recover; lose all three and the run ends. Haptics and synthesised arcade sounds fire on every shot, explosion, boss hit, and level clear. No audio files ship with the app. The chrome is strictly black and white; only the fleet and boss carry flat colour in colour mode. No account required. No internet required. Progress and high scores save automatically. Privacy Policy: https://arcade.mohamedfawzi.dev/privacy-policy Terms & Conditions: https://arcade.mohamedfawzi.dev/terms-and-conditions

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Janken Samurai at none against Voidwave's 1. Janken Samurai also leads on iOS requirement (11.0 vs 26.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
