Power Surge: Planet Breakers

The Fracture Titan is tearing the planet Orrin apart, and it sends a different avatar of itself to each battleground. You drop into an arena alone, seen from above, and creatures called the Fracture pour in from every side.

Your fighter aims, blasts and strikes on their own. Your job is to move well: slip between shots, step off marked ground, dodge through attacks, and choose the right moment for your special move and your transformation. Every dangerous attack is drawn on the ground before it lands, so a loss always feels like something you could have dodged.

Three minutes on the clock

A mission is short enough to play on a break, and it always has the same shape.

1. 0:00 to 0:45, survive the swarm. Creatures arrive in waves. Each one you defeat feeds your level, and every level you pick one of three upgrades.
2. 0:45, the boss lands. A warning sounds, then the stage's avatar drops into the arena. It fights in three phases and gets angrier in each.
3. Before 3:00, shatter it. Break the avatar before the clock runs out and the mission is won. Win or lose, your damage and progress are kept.

Six fighters, three to earn

• Rhea, Solar Lancer. Balanced. Holds a steady lance of sunlight on her target. Ready from the start.
• Thorn, Stone Warden. Tough. His shots pierce, and he splits the ground into a burning fissure. Ready from the start.
• Pip, Gale Runner. Fast. The quickest feet, the shortest wait between dodges, and a chakram that cuts out and back. Ready from the start.
• Vex, Void Duelist. Burst damage. Hits hardest, breaks easiest. Unlock: 25 defeats and one transformation.
• Hodl, Vault Guard. Heavy weapons. A guest from the HODL project, with a rapid-fire rifle, homing rockets, a charge left behind on every dodge, and a gun drone. Unlock: deal 15,000 damage to bosses.
• Legacy, Golden Wolf. Legendary. The strongest fighter in the game, with a howl that clears the arena around him. Unlock: shatter 3 bosses.

Six stages, six bosses

Every stage has its own ground, its own danger and its own avatar of the Titan. The first five are open from the start. The last opens when the other five have fallen.

• Orrin Shelf: Geode Queen. Rings and volleys of shots, and she calls in more creatures. No hazard: the place to learn.
• Ember Reach: Cinder Wyrm. Charges across the arena trailing fire and breathes a cone of embers. Hazard: lava vents.
• Skyglass Terrace: Prism Seraph. Blinks around the arena and turns four beams of light through it. Hazard: gales that push you sideways.
• Verdant Hollow: Briar Hydra. Rooted in the middle. Tears marked lanes through the ground and drops spore clouds. Hazard: vines that slow you down.
• Sunscar Dunes: Dune Reaver. Hunts you on foot, burrows, and comes up under you with a pincer strike. Hazard: lances of sunlight.
• The Fracture Core: Fracture Titan. The Titan itself, with everything its avatars had. The clock here is 3:30.

Level up, charge up, transform

• 17 upgrades. Each level pauses the fight and offers three. Split your shots, add crystal shards that circle you, make defeated creatures explode, or carry a shield that soaks up a hit.
• Ki. The energy behind your special move. It refills by itself, faster from strikes and pickups, and fastest while you hold Power to charge.
• Surge. Fills as you defeat creatures. When it is full, transform: you heal, shrug off damage for a moment, and hit harder. Every fighter has two transformed forms.

Good to know

• Free. No purchases, no account, no wallet.
• In your browser. Nothing to download. It works on a laptop, a desktop or a phone.
• Progress is kept. Unlocks, best scores and bosses shattered are saved on your device.
• 12 kinds of creature. Each with its own trick, and each one warns you before it hits.
