Nova Impact
SteamNova Impact is an adrenaline-fueled 2D Space Shooter RPG (SSRPG) where survival is your only path to glory. You are a Zenith, an elite licensed pilot taking part in humanity’s ultimate combat simulation. But in this arena, you are the ultimate prize.
Relentless waves of unlicensed challengers, known as the Trackers, will hunt you down like a pack to steal your license. Your mission? Outmaneuver the swarm, rack up kills, and prove you are the #1 champion.

Say goodbye to menus that break your flow. In Nova Impact, the action never stops! Plan your ship's upgrade path before you enter the arena. As you destroy Trackers and gain XP, your ship automatically levels up and deploys your pre-selected enhancements. Focus entirely on dodging, shooting, and surviving the swarm.
Every single kill in the arena is tracked. At the end of each run, your combat performance is converted into two crucial resources: Credits and V.O.I.D. points. Spend your hard-earned Credits to purchase powerful modules that permanently reinforce your ship's capabilities. Meanwhile, accumulate V.O.I.D. points (Virtual Orbit & Interstellar Duels) to climb the division leaderboards and prove your worth to the League.

You start at the bottom of the Zenith ladder, but your ambition doesn't stop there. As you survive longer and push your limits, you will unlock new routes in the League. Once you reach the top of the ranks, prepare for the ultimate challenge: intense, 1-on-1 boss fights against rival Zeniths to claim their spot.
Fight over a sleek, tactical Hex-Grid while the universe comes to life beneath you. Thanks to a stunning multi-layered parallax system, watch breathtaking nebulas form and massive planets materialize in the deep space background as the simulation intensifies.
