About Voidwake Space Shooter
The Halden relay went dark and the drone fleets it once commanded still fly their last patrol orders. You take the only interceptor left in the hangar out through their lanes, from the Drift Belt to the Maw, bolting salvaged parts onto the hull between fights.
Fly a lone interceptor through a 50-level campaign in five sectors, pick an upgrade after every level and beat five bosses. Endless and daily too.
How to play Voidwake Space Shooter
Your ship fires on its own. On a phone, drag anywhere on the screen and the ship moves with your finger without sitting under it; with a mouse the ship follows the cursor; arrow keys or WASD work too, hold Shift for fine moves. Choose Campaign or Endless on the title screen. The campaign has 50 levels in five sectors: each sector brings three or four new enemy types, one level at a time with a short note on how to beat them, and ends with its own boss. Clear a level to open the next; a level cleared without a hit earns three stars, with one hit two. A run carries its upgrades from level to level, and the level map restarts any open level with the upgrades you had when you first reached it. Endless sends wave after wave, with a boss every fifth wave. You start with three hull points and can hold up to five. Pink shots, beams and enemy hulls cost a hull point, and the run ends when the last one is gone. Only the small bright core in the middle of the ship can be hit. After each level or wave choose one of three upgrades: spread, pierce, rapid fire, power, drones, homing missiles, shield, magnet or repair. Every kill without taking a hit builds your streak, and each 15 kills raise the score multiplier up to x8. Gems from wrecks and shots that pass close by add points at the current multiplier, and a wave cleared without a hit pays a Flawless bonus. Clearing level 10 or wave 10 opens hard mode: two hull points, tougher enemies and rare repairs.

Features
50-level campaign, five sectors
Each sector introduces three or four new enemy types one level at a time, with a short note on how to beat them, and ends with its own boss.
Nine upgrades
After every level or wave, choose 1 of 3 from spread, pierce, rapid fire, power, drones, homing missiles, shield, magnet or repair. A run carries its upgrades from level to level.
Streak multiplier
Every kill without taking a hit builds your streak, and each 15 kills raises the score multiplier up to x8. A level or wave cleared without a hit also pays a Flawless bonus.
Endless mode
Wave after wave with a boss every fifth wave, for runs with no fixed end.
Hard mode and daily run
Clearing level 10 (or wave 10 in Endless) opens hard mode: two hull points instead of three, tougher enemies and rarer repairs. The daily run gives everyone the same fight.
Tips
- Watch the small bright core in the middle of your ship: that is the only part shots can hit, so you can slip through gaps narrower than the wings.
- Dashed pink lines are warnings: a charger's line turns solid just before it dashes, and a lancer's dashed column becomes a beam; step out as soon as you see one.
- A warder's tether makes the enemy at its other end immune to your shots, so shoot the warder first.
- Shots that pass close to the core score points at your multiplier, so slip along the edge of a stream instead of fleeing to the far side.
- Against the Lattice and the Hydra, destroy the side pods or the heads first; the core cannot be damaged while any of them is still firing.
Frequently asked questions
How many levels and bosses does Voidwake have?
The campaign has 50 levels across five sectors, each ending in its own boss, for five bosses total. Endless mode has no fixed end and puts a boss every fifth wave.
Is Voidwake hard, and what does hard mode change?
Hard mode opens once you clear level 10 in the campaign or wave 10 in Endless. It drops your hull points from three to two, makes enemies tougher and makes repair upgrades rarer.
How do I avoid getting hit in Voidwake?
Only the small bright core in the middle of your ship can be hit, so you can slip through gaps narrower than your wings. Watch for dashed pink lines: a charger's line turns solid just before it dashes, and a lancer's dashed column becomes a beam.
Does Voidwake save my progress?
Your campaign progress, stars, unlocked hard mode and stats stay on this device. Use Sync devices to move them to a new phone or browser with a one-time code; there is no account.
Can I play Voidwake on my phone?
