Take the reins of an escaped convict and fight your way through alien worlds in sci-fi rogue-lite Battle Planet – Judgement Day.

Players are invited to blow up virtual worlds in this new top-down, twin-stick shooter by developer THREAKS. As a wanted criminal who has escaped from a crashed transport ship, players must blast their way through attacking waves of police, military, aliens, and robots in an endless orgy of sci-fi destruction. Players can zip around the surfaces of alien worlds as they annihilate their foes and move on to even more challenging planets.

Survival is the name of the game in Battle Planet – Judgement Day. After finishing all the planets in a star system, players jump to another with ever-more deadly foes. Lucky for them, their ship receives a steady stream of upgrades, making it more devastating and durable.

From the developer:

They are all after you – behind the convict, who just managed to flee from an accidental transport ship. “All of them” means heavily armed police, soldiers, nasty aliens and deadly robots. Make your way through the approaching hordes, fight through violent explosions and blazing fire, and try not to go under in this endless orgy of brute force.

From a bird’s eye view, you can see the huge battlefield in which you are moving: the surface of whole planets, which turn in perspective with you. After fighting your way through one planet, the transport capsule will take you to the next one.

Discover an entire galaxy of randomly generated new planets with different surfaces and conditions. Be sure to use the many upgrades that keep you on your way. Because you have only one goal – survival!
