ā–  A crash-landed pilot's fight for survival You are the pilot from the shoot-'em-up VALIX. After destroying the enemy mothership, your ship crash-lands on an unknown world. Hold out against endless waves of an alien living swarm, escape 7 planets, and make it back to Earth. ā–  One-finger survival action Drag to move — your weapons fire automatically. No aiming required; focus purely on dodging and building. Runs last 5-10 minutes, and every death makes you permanently stronger. ā–  Builds that grow endlessly • Max out a weapon and pair the right passive to evolve it into a stronger form • Four build synergies that trigger automatically when your combo lines up • Pick one of three upgrade cards on every level up • Permanent upgrades that carry over between runs ā–  Elements matter — what you shoot with decides the fight Five elements (fire, ice, electric, acid, physical), and every planet has its own weakness and resistance. Hit a weakness and damage spikes; bring a resisted element and enemies simply won't die. Grab a weapon that works on this planet from treasure chests. ā–  Every planet is a different battlefield • 7 planets across 28 regions • Planet hazards (lava, poison fog, ice, quicksand) and sweeping environmental events • 7 unique bosses, each with its own patterns and signature attack • Cover obstacles, destructibles, treasure chests, elite enemies ā–  Rescue stranded allies Recover distress pods dropped across the battlefield and survivors join your formation to fight alongside you. The more you rescue, the stronger your next launch. ā–  Reach Earth — and beyond Returning to Earth ends the story, but you can take on a new loop if you want. Each loop makes enemies tougher while raising your firepower and upgrade caps to match. ā–  Pure dopamine Kill combos, instant power-ups (nova, rapid fire, magnet), and treasure-chest jackpots — bullet storms and explosions filling the screen. Chase records with leaderboards and achievements. Launch now and begin your journey home to Earth! * Free to play with ads. The game itself plays offline; an internet connection is only needed for ads and leaderboards.
