Now, everyone can make "BOOM" match their personal skill. Find out if you got what it takes …
Story:
The sky over Blue Moon is on fire. Alarm sirens shatter the silence of the night. The evil creatures that lurked in the shadows are now forced into the open. You are already in the cockpit – no tutorials, no second chances. The enemy armada stretches across the stars, turning entire sectors into graveyards. They’ve got more fighters, more weapons, more power – and huge, grotesque overlords, made of metal and flesh. You’ve got … well, let’s just say your warranty doesn’t cover this.
Every enemy wave is faster, tighter, deadlier. Snatch precious power-ups, find those upgrades that transform survival into domination… and let those beasts regret showing up. The odds are ridiculous, the danger is real–and that’s exactly why you’ll keep coming back. Survive, adapt, and maybe make it till the end … before the fire consumes everything.
