CLEAVE WAVE

The crystal swarm is coming. Self-replicating silicate structures — the Crystal Swarm — descend in formation. Each carries a core of light inside an angular mineral shell. Wave after wave they curve into place, and once the formation settles it breathes: expanding, contracting, waiting. Your ship holds the bottom row. Move, fire, cleave. 80s arcade spirit, today's feel · Portrait-only fixed formation shooter — playable one-handed · Locked 60-tick simulation — same input, same result, which is why the leaderboard is fair · Bitmap HUD, eight-voice priority-mixed sound · No ads · No in-app purchases · No sign-in Captured, recovered, doubled Every second sortie, the captain drops a beam to draw your ship in. Your gun stays live while you're pulled up. The captured ship rides behind the formation; shoot that captain on its next dive and the ship returns to fly at your side. Twice the firepower — and twice the hitbox. It's a choice, not a reward. Ranks, risk, reward Shell layers mark rank. Drop the escorts first and the captain is worth less. When a trio transforms and dives as a set, only a clean sweep of all three pays the bonus. Every fourth sector the DRIFT FIELD arrives — enemies that never fire, just pass. Miss nothing and it's FLAWLESS. Three difficulties, three leaderboards EASY · NORMAL · HARD change when the swarm turns aggressive and how many ships you get. Rankings are kept per difficulty. Nicknames are 2–12 uppercase letters and digits — like an arcade high-score board. Game controller support Connect a controller and the on-screen controls disappear. Choose AUTO · TOUCH · PAD in SETUP. Privacy Only when you use the leaderboard does the app send an app-generated install identifier, your nickname, your score and your device model to our server. No location, contacts or advertising identifiers are collected, and the app does not contact the server before you accept the terms. A new take on the rules of classic arcade formation shooters, built for today's devices. All characters, art, sound and text are original.
