Nova Drift is a 'rogue-lite' space shooter that melds a classic arcade experience with modern 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. Build to play how you want, creating a unique build every game. Runs are quick, allowing for rapid experimentation and iteration.




This unconventional build defeats enemies by slamming right through them, detonating its shields, and burning anything nearby.

Nova Drift is a decade-long labor of love developed by Jeffrey Nielson (Chimeric) in collaboration with its community, featuring music and audio by Miles Tilmann (Pixeljam).
