Vortex Attack EX, arcade shoot’em-up on Windows & Switch

Put on your pilot suit and strap that helmet on! Get ready to defend the galaxy in Nintendo Switch and Windows PC via Steam.

Earth is in danger – wormholes are appearing all around it, and alien enemy ships are swarming out of them. Several colonies have already been destroyed. It’s up to you to lead the offense against these black holes. Destroy your enemies, collect their ‘lumergy’ (as white triangles) to reverse the black holes’ dark energy and destroy them!

A throng of Steam players has been really addicted to the first Vortex Attack, investing countless hours in it – some of them, over 150h! Steam’s original version has 90% positive reviews, yet the new version “EX” is going to improve it in every sense. Players’ feedback has proven invaluable to design those improvements. Now players can have a blast immediately in Vortex Attack EX, and so can you. This will only happen if you play to unlock a ship and play with it. It’ll only take 5 minutes. As a bonus: Vortex Attack EX has been designed with all skill levels in mind.

Vortex Attack EX has been released for Nintendo Switch and Windows PC (Steam), with huge graphic, sound, UX and gameplay enhancements over the original game.

Vortex Attack EX has been designed to play against friends – lore is secondary. Beating the game or beating each others’ hi-scores in local / worldwide leaderboards is what the game is all about.

Playing with friends is a delight! Many an evening will be spent together, trying to beat the game, unlocking new ships (19 different unlocks) and 16 visual styles. There is a lot of re-playability through varying characteristics for different ships and different visual styles – the game can change dramatically! Picking the right ship for your skill level and then matching it to your friends’ in coop modes will keep you testing choices for a long time.
Fight the enemy swarms on your own or alongside one or two friends and destroy the vortices! The space is full of enemy ships.
