Our take on Nova Nukers!

The defining detail is the destructible planet surface: explosions create craters while bringing the dangerous core beneath the arena into the battle.

What is Nova Nukers!?

Nova Nukers!

supports battles involving as many as four participants through internet play or shared local sessions. Friends can join a private online room or play together in the same physical space. The game offers five selectable characters, six modes, and seven worlds featuring icy, sandy, and molten environments. Blasts reshape terrain by leaving craters and exposing a hazardous center below the surface. A catching mechanic introduces close-range contests within matches. Practice battles against computer-controlled rivals are available across five progressively harder settings. Players can earn 14 items and 20 character appearances, while customizable rules allow matches to favor either balanced competition or deliberately chaotic play.

Shattered Dreams: that one time when all my applications got rejected, so I started my own company. My life became an idle / clicker game where I must increase all incremental values and squeeze my employees for every last bit of soul they have left.
