Our take on Dimension Drive
The defining mechanic is the split-screen battlefield system: a ship can move between two simultaneous combat spaces to evade attacks, uncover routes, or coordinate with a local co-op partner.
What is Dimension Drive?
Dimension Drive is a space shoot 'em up built around switching between two battlefields on one split screen.
Players change sides to avoid bullet waves, reach secret areas, surprise enemies, or divide tasks during local co-op play. The story campaign contains 13 levels, with 13 additional zones in New Game+ mode. Secret data cubes unlock and power up weapons such as the Flak Shotgun and Pulse Cannon. Drift Drive supports rapid bullet evasion, while Reverse Drive allows attacks from an unexpected direction. Four difficulty settings range from Normal to Insane, and online leaderboards track performance. The game supports solo play and local cooperative play, with partners able to fight together on one screen or split up to collect loot.
