GateFire vs Starvex

Dodge, blast, and upgrade your way through an endless neon gauntlet. GateFire is a fast, one-thumb arcade shooter built for quick runs — no tutorials, no waiting, just tap in and see how long you last. YOUR SHIP FIRES ITSELF. YOU JUST HAVE TO SURVIVE. Drag anywhere to move. Your ship auto-fires at everything in its path, so your only job is positioning — weave through incoming obstacles while lining up shots on the gates worth chasing. EVERY GATE IS A CHOICE Obstacles come from the right. Upgrade gates come in pairs from the left, and you only get one: a flat stat boost or a multiplier, more damage or faster fire rate. Shoot down the gate you want before it scrolls past — the one you skip is gone for good. THE SWARM NEVER LETS UP Difficulty ramps in real time. Obstacles get faster and denser at fixed milestones, and a bouncing threat keeps you honest between waves. The longer you survive, the harder GateFire pushes back. FEATURES • One-thumb drag controls — auto-fire means you never touch a button • Risk/reward upgrade gates with real stat trade-offs • Escalating difficulty that never plateaus • Multiple selectable starfighters, picked before every run • Game Center leaderboard — climb the ranks and compare your best run • Runs built for a spare minute or ten — jump in anywhere How far can you make it before the gates run out?

Starvex is a space shooter about one thing: your fleet. You start with a single ship. Fly through the gates between waves - +1, +5, x2 - and a lone fighter becomes a wall of ships firing as one. Every five gates your whole fleet refits into a stronger hull, from Scout and Interceptor up through Destroyer and Star Reaper to Celestial Omega. 100 MISSIONS ACROSS 10 GALAXIES Chart a course from the Outer Reach to the Vex Heartland: ten galaxies, one hundred missions, each with its own worlds, hazards and enemy fleets. Frozen frontiers, crystal fields, lava forges, ocean strongholds, stellar nurseries, wreckage fields, and the citadel waiting at the end of it all. ENEMIES THAT ARRIVE IN ORDER Rift Mantas, Iron Scarabs, Volt Wardens, Brood Reapers and Obsidian Lancers each enter the campaign at their own mission, so every chapter teaches you something before it tests you. Every fifth mission a Crown Devourer blocks the lane: weak points to break, a charge beam to dodge, burning meteors to shoot out of the sky. SHIPS AND LIVES ARE SEPARATE Ram an enemy and you lose a ship. Let one escape past you and you lose a defence life. Run out of either and the mission ends - so every gate is a choice between pushing forward and holding the line. UPGRADES THAT STAY Missions pay out Stardust. Spend it on Weapon Core, Fire Control, Squad Bay and Defense Matrix, and every upgrade carries into every mission you fly after.
