Control your thrust, sprint, reverse and fire your laser to get past meteors, UFOs, enemies and obstacles. You have six lives: terrain collisions and enemy attacks can damage your craft. A UNIVERSE IN MOTION From the Moon and Mars to Saturn’s rings and the Sun, every environment has its own identity. Explore Neon Prime, a technological planet with glowing cities; a Dyson sphere surrounding a star; a black hole with a luminous accretion disk; Rose Aurora; Verdant; and Bubble Ocean, with waves, floating bubbles and leaping fish. Craters, clouds, passing ships and animated details bring the backgrounds to life. 30 BOSSES, INCREASING DIFFICULTY Face bosses with different attacks and patterns. Each successive boss raises the challenge: decide when to accelerate, reverse and use your laser.
