Only one colony survived, carrying four prototype ships they are travelling to save what it's left of the other colonies, and taking as many Starians as they can on their way. While in the game you ll be able to chose from 4 different ships with its unique abilities, then you ll go to the galaxy map. To unlock new areas you have to clear the previous one first. In order to finish one area you have to find the orbs and bring them to the colony. When the core of the colony is charged at 100% then you ll be able to jump and unlock the next area. Attack the enemies but also use your abilities to protect the colony, if the colony gets destroyed you ll have to start from the beginning of the level.

Constructions To be able to build in the game you have to find the relics hidden in each level. Every Relic will grant you one ability. Once you get 4 relics in different galaxy areas you'll get all the abilities for your selected ship. Every class is capable of making shields, which is the foundation for defending the colony. But construct come in the price of blue matter. Gather blue matter from fallen enemies and remember that for carriers and engineers building is cheaper than for fighters and strikers Striker and Fighter will get offensive abilities, while Engineer and Carrier in addition to shields will be able to build repair platforms known as sanctuaries, hives with attack drones, turrets that attack the enemies, laser shields and defensive spheres

We develop our technology based on the relics, if you find more you ll get new abilities for your aircrafts. Check out every corner of the galaxy, you never know when you ll find a relic, keep your eyes open! 5. Orbs Orbs are made of high concentrations of blue matter, the fuel we use to jump across the galaxy. In order to keep searching for a suitable planet for our colony we need orbs. Gather the orbs and take them to the colony, when the core is charged it will automatically jump to the next area.
