VECSTRIKE
Strap into a vector-graphics starfighter and fly into a glowing 3D arena. Wave after wave of enemy ships come at you, so dogfight, dodge their missiles and chase the high score.
Old-school arena shooting, rebuilt for today.
VecStrike draws on the vector arena shooters of the DOS era, where you flew through a wireframe box, rolled after your targets and lit them up. The controls feel modern, the frame rate stays smooth, and it plays just as well with a mouse on a Mac as with your thumbs on an iPhone.
On Mac it opens full screen with the menu bar hidden, so all you see is space.
Built for fast arcade action
TRUE 3D DOGFIGHTS
Pitch, yaw and roll freely inside a walled vector arena. Enemies come at you from every direction, so keep one eye on the radar.
NEON VECTOR STYLE
Solid, flat-shaded ships glow against a starfield and a wireframe grid. Kills burst into tumbling shards, and every sound effect is synthesized live.
LASERS & HOMING MISSILES
Lead your shots with the targeting ring, and gentle aim assist pulls lasers onto the target. Hold a lock to launch homing missiles.
PLAY YOUR WAY
Mouse flight and keyboard on Mac, a virtual stick and buttons on iPhone and iPad, or a game controller on any of them.
CHASE THE HIGH SCORE
Start with 10 ships and earn a bonus ship every 10,000 points. Clearing a wave pays a bonus, and every wave hits harder.
DODGE OR DIE
Enemies fire back with their own missiles. Break hard, roll and boost to shake them, and the built-in guide shows you how.
Know your enemy
DRONE
Slow and steady, but they swarm. Good target practice in the early waves.
INTERCEPTOR
Fast, nimble and fragile. They dart past you, so lead your shots.
GUNSHIP
Heavily shielded and fires fast. Hit it with missiles from range.
Mac, iPhone and iPad
Fly from the cockpit or switch to the chase camera to watch your fighter bank through the fight. The HUD adapts to every screen, from a wide Mac display to an iPhone held upright.
