High scores depend on how effectively you distribute your resources between attack speed and planetary shielding. Waves intensify over time, throwing splitting rocks and massive bosses into your path to test your endurance. Survival hinges on your ability to upgrade your ship before the next onslaught overwhelms your defenses.

How to play
Desktop:
• Hold the left mouse button to fly toward the cursor.
• Hold the right mouse button to activate boost.
• Your ship automatically fires at nearby meteors.
• Press M to turn the sound on or off.
Mobile:
• Use the joystick on the right to control the ship.
• During a wave, use the boost button to accelerate.
Destroy meteors before they reach Earth. Destroyed meteors reward you with crystals. Between waves, spend crystals on damage, attack speed, boost speed and shield upgrades.
Each meteor that reaches Earth removes one shield charge. If no shield remains, the current wave is lost, but you can retry it as many times as you want.
Survive waves, defeat bosses and set the highest wave record you can.
