About this game

- SURVIVE - EVOLVE - DOMINATE -

Nova Drift is a roguelike space shooter that combines classic arcade combat with action-rpg elements, emphasizing build-crafting and deep customization. Your ship rapidly evolves as you defeat enemies, allowing you to take a build from inception to execution in a single, captivating game session.

Featuring:

- Quick gameplay sessions (15-45 minutes) that allow for rapid experimentation, iteration, and advancement.

- Over 200 modular upgrades, unlocked over time, to create your ideal build with. Snipe, command a drone army, discharge your shields, charge up, burn enemies with your thrusters, or smash right through them... there's a way to make it work.

- Modular challenge modes to unlock and activate, providing greater risk and rewards. The stakes are high, as death is permanent!

- Every game is randomly generated, keeping the fight intense and unpredictable. Fight through the campaign or play endlessly...

Nova Drift is created by Chimeric, with music by Miles Tilmann.

An amazing game I've been a fan of for a long time on PC, and I'm so happy to see it on mobile platforms!! The level of customization the touch control editor has is incredible, and you can really tailor it to your exact desires! However, I would really like the joystick to respond to any touch in its area, rather than requiring you to drag from the center outwards.

I've been waiting for a quality arcade style game like this for mobile since Geometry Wars. This is a high quality rougue-lite space shooter game that has great replay value. The controls are very adjustable, a big deal for mobile games. There's plenty of upgrades and mods, which allows you to choose certain play styles and builds each playthrough. The first time I played I beat it, but haven't been able to do it since. After beating the game I unlocked endless mode, which expands the game ∞ 5/5

A unique rogue lite experience. Fun, and practical, computationally. My 5-6 year old computer can run it, as can my mp3. I don't care what game you like, if you like games at all, you will enjoy. (I would advise a BT controler for mobile, like Xbox) Would be appreciated though if mouse controls were available for my Chromebook, even though it thinks its mobile.

So happy to hear you're enjoying it! Mouse being unavailable on Chromebook is a surprise, we'll have to figure out what's going on there.

What’s new

- Fix for when playing Draft, the upgrade button would be incredibly overscaled causing player to inadvertently open the upgrade screen
- Fix for construct buttons deploying more than 1 with the same tap
- Fix for a crash when having Blades or Swords
