Starlight Survivors is a single-player, top-down space game that blends the hypnotic "just one more run" rhythm of arcade survival with the deep, interlocking systems of a roguelike.
Set in a bold, optimistic Y2K retrofuture aesthetic, players fight endless waves of enemy fleets , collect XP "blobjects" , and evolve their starship over the course of a run. The core of the game lies in its deep customisation; players can equip foundational ship systems , stack global enhancement modules , and hunt down bosses to unlock build-defining upgrades.
I am a solo developer on this title at Psionic Interactive, my indie studio.
