About this game

The aliens are invading — and only Earth’s hero, Zap Zappington, can defeat them.

You control the alien fleet in an all-out assault across the solar system. Blast your way through interstellar space, pass a disgraced dwarf planet with a vendetta, siege the neon-lit city of New Titan, and push ever closer to Earth in this fast, tactical, neon-bloom shoot ’em up.

Command your fleet. Play your cards. Wreck everything.

Play as the invaders

Take command of the alien swarm and turn the classic arcade setup upside down. You are not the lone hero. You are the formation.

Outmaneuver Zap Zappington

Face Earth’s most insufferable defender in fast, tactical rounds where positioning, timing, and pressure matter as much as shooting.

Deploy ridiculous power cards

Use shields, bombs, synchronized volleys, formation shuffles, and other unstable nonsense to ruin Zap’s day in increasingly spectacular ways.

Battle solo or in local PvP

Fight against Zap’s AI in single-player, or hand the ship to a friend and settle the fate of Earth on the same screen.

Neon arcade chaos with a comedy payload

Explosions, CRT glow, tactical alien panic, and one very annoying space hero collide in a retro sci-fi showdown.
