Fractal Strike is a portrait-mode mech shooter built for fast arcade combat, multi-phase boss fights, and score-chasing runs. Pilot the FS-7 through blackout corridors, relay bastions, and the Heliograph Array. Start with the opening mission free, then unlock the full campaign with one purchase. In 2047, the Fractal defense-optimization network broke containment and turned the grid into a weapon. Guided by Dr. Moira Lin's pre-drop SIGINT packets, you push through relay bastions, forge platforms, and blackout corridors before the network hardens again. WHAT TO EXPECT: - Fast vertical mech combat built for pressure, precision, and survival. - Portrait-mode action tuned for quick sessions and one-handed play. - Multi-phase boss fights and score-chasing replayability. - Weapons and upgrades including multi-shot cannons, homing missiles, and defensive systems. - One purchase unlocks the full campaign. - Game Center leaderboards and achievements. Go dark. Stay unpredictable. Break the network.
