About Starfall Vanguard

One thumb. Fifty levels. Ten star systems. How far can you fly? Starfall Vanguard is a classic arcade shoot-em-up built for one-handed play. Drag anywhere to fly — your ship rides above your finger and fires while you're touching. Lift off to hold fire, weave through the barrage, and get back in the fight. Tap with a second finger to drop a bomb. CAMPAIGN - Fifty levels across ten star systems and six biomes, each with its own enemies, bosses and skies - Fourteen enemy types: rammers, gunships, armored hulls, splitters, carriers and swarms that learn new tricks the deeper you go - Twelve bosses with multi-phase attack patterns — spread fans, bullet rings, homing missiles you'll learn to bait and break - Earn up to three stars per level; three means a clean run - Clear a level and fly straight into the next with your weapon, shields and bombs intact FIGHT - Weapon upgrades to a 5-barrel spread with double-damage rounds - Stacking energy shields that absorb hits before your hull - Bombs that grow from a ring to a full screen clear as you upgrade PROGRESS - Earn coins with every kill, keep them forever - Three ships to own and fly — buy them with the coins you earn and switch between them in the hangar - Spend coins on hull plating, shield batteries, rapid fire, weapon mastery, bomb bays and coin magnets - Your progress syncs through iCloud between your devices COMPETE - Endless mode: ever-shifting formations, a boss every 20 waves, and a kill-streak multiplier — stay clean, score big - Local top-10 high scores and a Game Center leaderboard Painted ships and enemies, neon lasers, fireball explosions and a cockpit view. No in-app purchases and no accounts. Coins are earned by playing, never bought. A short ad plays after boss victories, and after a run you can optionally watch one to double your coin haul.
