Resonance Core
The universe won't wait. Neither should you.
Chart your course through infinite space aboard one of humanity's most advanced vessels. Helios brings back the raw thrill of classic asteroid combat — rebuilt from the ground up with modern mechanics and stunning visuals that make every explosion feel earned.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
YOUR SHIP. YOUR STYLE. YOUR ARSENAL.
Choose from 6 unique ships, each with its own weapon system, active ability, and passive perk. Unlock 5 additional ships and a skin for each as you progress — some earned through mastery, others available in the shop. No two pilots fly the same way.
Every ship comes loaded with a unique active ability charged through your heat/ability bar, and a passive that changes how you play from the first second to the last.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
HUNT OR BE HUNTED
Face off against 8 distinct anomaly types — enemy ships with their own behaviors, tactics, and threat levels. Think you've mastered them? 7 anomaly bosses stand between you and the depths of space, each one a powerhouse with devastating attack patterns that will push your reflexes, strategy, and nerves to the absolute limit. Defeat them all. If you can.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
READ THE FIELD. USE IT.
Not all asteroids are created equal — learn to spot them and use them to your advantage:
🔵 Blue crystal asteroids — Destroy them to generate a protective shield
🔴 Red crystal asteroids — Smash them to recover lost lives and stay in the fight
💚 Green crystal asteroids — High reward — worth massive bonus points
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
MISSION CONTROL
A series of 8 story missions guides you through the cosmos, with daily missions at varying difficulty levels keeping every session fresh. Complete runs, claim rewards, unlock new possibilities.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
UPGRADE. ADAPT. SURVIVE.
A deployable shop lets you invest your hard-earned credits into temporary buffs that last the duration of a run. Every run is a fresh build — every death is a lesson. Push further each time.
