Return Vector

A vertical shoot-'em-up with a story to tell.

Return Vector — a boss fight against the Echo Reaver, the Vagabond firing up the corridor

Fly a single ship — the Vagabond — up a fixed corridor of space, destroying incoming Echo craft, collecting salvage from their wrecks, and spending it between levels on a small permanent upgrade tree. Eleven levels, four boss fights, one linear campaign with checkpoints.

Features

  • Salvage economy — collect wreckage and spend it on a small permanent upgrade tree.
  • Deterministic & seeded — frame-rate-independent, reproducible runs.
  • Built in Godot 4 — macOS, Windows, Linux, and the web.
