New Terra

New Terra is a physics-based space shooter in which you pilot a ship through locations including asteroids, alien oceans and mineshafts on distant planets. You control its rotation and forward or reverse thrust, spending fuel with each thrust. Gravity constantly pulls the ship downward, and you can use that force to your advantage or have it work against you.

Navigate and survive

Each level has limited fuel and power-ups, so inefficient decisions can leave you without enough fuel to avoid a crash. Your ship takes damage if it touches anything, and too much damage causes it to crash. Weapons can help, but firing near allies or amid rocks can make rock fall onto you or your enemies.

Some missions require you to tow heavy objects. While towing, fuel burns twice as fast and the ship travels at a quarter of its usual speed, making physics and planning important.

Missions and modes

The game has 18 missions set across different planets, asteroids and interstellar locations. In Pitch Black mode, the lights are out on every level and you rely on your headlamp for visibility, creating 36 experiences in total.

You start with 30 lives. Each level hides one extra life that you can find and claim.
