Vectoroid 3D

Vectoroid 3D is a free offline space shooter for Android, published by Forge Development Studio, in which you turn, thrust and shoot your way through a field of glowing wireframe rocks that break into smaller, faster fragments when hit.

Free to play with ads. Optional in-app purchases. No account and no internet connection needed.

Vectoroid 3D with a x10 kill chain and Fever doubling the score

One ship, no lives, and a belt that keeps getting meaner. Big rocks break into smaller ones, smaller ones move faster, and the run ends when your ship does.

No server, no season pass, no waiting. Most space shooters on the store stop working the moment your signal does. This one does not.

How Vectoroid 3D plays

The chain is the score

  • Every rock destroyed without dying feeds a kill chain, and the chain multiplies everything.
  • Reach a x10 chain and FEVER doubles it again.
  • Bigger rocks pay more and drop more coins. A boulder is worth taking on, if you can handle what it breaks into.

Hyperspace — the best and worst button

Jump and you vanish from wherever you are, which will save your life. But every jump inside the next nine seconds makes the next one more likely to misfire: nine percent the first time, rising to twenty-seven if you panic. Learning when not to press it is the skill.

The belt escalates on three axes

Each wave adds another rock, up to ten, moves them faster, up to 2.75x, and pays more. Boulders start arriving at wave three. Clearing a wave pays a flat bonus of 220 times the wave number — a milestone deliberately kept outside the chain, so a clear is always worth having.

Thrust and nitro

Thrust is a button, not a gesture. Nitro is a second button: a half-second burn that kicks you along your current heading with extra steering authority, topping out at 640 against a normal cap of 460. It is an escape and a commitment at the same time.

Controls

Dedicated turn, thrust and nitro buttons, so there are no accidental boosts. Tilt controls are available in Settings and can be calibrated to your grip.

A vector shooter, in the older sense of the word

A vector shooter draws its ship and its rocks as glowing edges rather than as sprites, which is how the free-flight space shooters of the late 1970s worked and why they still read cleanly at speed. Vectoroid 3D is built in that lineage: thin bright lines on black, and geometry that rotates and scales without a pixel staircase anywhere in it.
