Icarus-X: Tides of Fire - Roguelike/Diablo SHMUP by The Quadsphere

Low bandwidth Version | Pop Up

Hello TA,



I'm super proud to announce the sequel to Icarus-X coming to iPad this spring :)

This time it comes with a Roguelike/Diablo twist: leveling, loot, skill trees and a perma-death mode.

And for those who hate lifebars in their shmups, a traditional 1-bullet-death Arcade mode is there too!







CAMPAIGN MODE



Choose from 3 ship classes, gain experience up to level 30, loot randomly generated weapons, shields and mods from your enemies and carefully spend points in non-resetable skill trees.



Make your own challenge: overwhelm lower level enemies with devastating firepower, min-max your ship's stats to quickly farm a specific chapter for rare loot, or bite all that you can chew and risk losing it all in hardcore mode.

1. Randomly generated enemy waves


2. 3 sub-modes: Casual (no death penalty), Normal and Hardcore (perma-death)


3. 3 ship classes: Fighter, Cruiser and Destroyer


4. 30 levels of ship experience


5. 15+ stats to min-max, such as Critical Damage, Armor, Shield Regeneration, Hitbox Size and more


6. 3 skill trees (Attack, Defense and Technology)


7. Evolutive special powers


8. Billions of randomly generated items with 4 quality tiers and according rarity


9. 4 tiers of difficulty


10. World ranking

ARCADE MODE

1. 1 bullet death: no life bars or shield shenanigans


2. Chain scoring: combos increase your score multiplier


3. 1CC scoring: you can continue when out of lives but your score and chain will reset


4. In-game power-ups

COMMON FEATURES

1. Replays


2. Leaderboards


3. Achievements


4. Original soundtrack

You can find plenty of screenshots and a couple gameplay videos (Trailer still to come!) on the website: www.icarus-x.com
