DRONE STRIKE You are the eyes in the sky. Pilot a military reconnaissance drone deep into enemy territory. Map the battlefield, avoid threats, and stay airborne as long as possible. But when a high-value target appears โ€” you face the ultimate decision: keep flying, or go kamikaze. โ€” ENDLESS RUNNER MEETS TACTICAL DECISION-MAKING โ€” Every run is different. Procedurally generated terrain means no two missions are the same. The further you fly, the higher the stakes โ€” and the greater the rewards. โ€” BLOW UP TARGETS โ€” Your drone carries no weapons. No ammo. Just one option when it matters most: sacrifice everything for maximum impact. Spot a command post, an ammo depot, or an enemy tank โ€” and decide. Is it worth it? โ€” SURVIVE THE BATTLEFIELD โ€” Enemy threats escalate the further you fly: - Rifle soldiers that open fire when you get too close - Jammer units that scramble your controls - Anti-drone artillery with devastating range - Enemy drones that hunt you down - Natural obstacles โ€” trees, buildings, terrain - Helicopters with devastating artillery rounds โ€” 12-BIT MILITARY STYLE โ€” Inspired by the classic top-down combat games of the 16-bit era. Crisp pixel art, explosive animations, and a soundtrack that puts you in the cockpit. โ€” HOW TO PLAY โ€” Use the on-screen joystick to steer your drone across enemy territory. When a high-value target enters range, the KAMIKAZE button activates. Tap it to blow up the target. A New drone will fly in and continue your flight. Simple to learn. Impossible to put down. DRONE STRIKE. Fly far. Strike hard.
