An asteroid belt, a small ship and just enough room for one more escape. Break apart the rocks, watch for UFOs and see how long you can survive.

Keep moving

Large asteroids split into smaller threats, changing the space around you as you shoot. A clear route can close in moments. Choose when to turn, when to fire and when to get out of the way.

More than a field of rocks

UFOs add another reason to keep an eye beyond your next target. Stay aware of the whole screen and resist chasing a shot that leaves you boxed in.

A score worth chasing

Short survival runs make it easy to try again. Learn the rhythm of the field, make cleaner escapes and push your best score a little further.

Play your way

Play with keyboard and mouse or a supported controller. Windows and Mac downloads are linked above; the Mac App Store edition is named ataXous prime. Screenshots below show gameplay from the desktop editions.
