Mayday description
Mayday
Releasing Feb.16 2025, Mayday is a wave-based sci-fi shoot ’em up where every clear makes you stronger… and weaker. You pilot the Skylon, a prototype combat craft built to adapt on the fly. Survive enemy swarms, dodge dense projectile patterns, and wipe out targets fast—then after each wave, choose a brutal triangle upgrade that trades one stat for another: Attack up / Defence down; Defence up / Speed down; Speed up / Attack down.
Core Gameplay Loop
- Fight through waves of enemies with escalating bullet patterns and retaliation attacks.
- Clear a set number of enemies to progress through each area.
- After a wave, pick a stat specialization with a downside: Attack ↑ / Defence ↓; Defence ↑ / Speed ↓; Speed ↑ / Attack ↓.
- Learn enemy behaviour, build the right stat path, and survive long enough to reach each boss.
Story Mode
In a future where peace is protected by the Agent Society, a rogue faction—the Fallen Star Organization—hunts a myth and seeks to awaken a superweapon. You play as Agent Mayday, connected to the Skylon’s operating system Elizabeth, and are dispatched into the Alyphs Quadrant to shut down enemy bases before Nova changes everything.
Arcade Mode
Arcade Mode is pure action: no cutscenes, just non-stop progression through stages of enemy waves and boss encounters. If you crave the gameplay grind, precise dodging, and decisive build choices, this mode delivers. The triangle stat-tradeoff upgrade system forces real decisions every run, heightening tension as you push toward the finale with rising enemy pressure and epic boss fights.
Mayday blends tight dodging with fast clears and strategic progression. Learn enemy behavior, experiment with stat paths, and endure to the final confrontation. It’s a test of reflexes, adaptation, and decision-making under relentless pressure.
Prepare to adapt, dodge, and decide your fate in the vacuum of space.
