Frequently asked questions
How do I play this browser space shooter?
Move the Void Skimmer with the joystick or keyboard, collect glowing orbs, use Drift to survive collisions, and trigger Pulse to clear nearby enemies and gather multiple orbs.
What does Drift do?
Drift makes the Void Skimmer temporarily invincible. During the active drift, colliding with an enemy destroys that enemy instead of costing a life.
How do I increase my arcade score?
Collect orbs without losing momentum to build the multiplier. Pulse collection earns more points per orb and also fills the rush meter faster than normal collection.
