Nightfreight

A cargo run through contested airspace

Play Nightfreight What it is

You are flying freight through airspace somebody else claims. Tap fire for a pellet or hold it for a lance that punches through more than one thing.

Haulers drop drones when they break up. Collect them and they fly formation with you, firing when you fire — up to three. Take a hit and you lose one, which makes staying tidy worth more than staying aggressive.

What is in it

Charged fire

Hold the button for a shot that goes through things.

Drone escort

Salvage from wrecks flies with you and doubles your fire.

Three enemies

Runners rush, weavers dodge, haulers soak up damage.

Rolling runs

Each run is longer and busier than the last.

Controls

Mouse and touch work the way you would expect. It can also be played entirely with a keyboard, or with a controller on a television.
