Voidmania
Voidmania is a fast neon arcade game about drawing lines. Your ship lives on the walls of a dark field; step out into the void and you leave a glowing trail behind you. Close the trail against a wall and the side without the boss is claimed for good, uncovering a piece of the hidden picture underneath. Claim 80% of the field, or squeeze the boss into a pocket too small to live in, and the sector is yours.
The catch is that your line is fragile while it is open. If any enemy touches it, a fuse lights at that spot and races along the trail toward you, so you have to reach a wall or back off in time. Eight sectors bring in new threats one at a time: shooters, teleporters, a serpent with a long body, a many-armed hydra, a hive that keeps hatching, a watching eye that fires a beam across the field, plus fog, darkness, mirrored controls and half-time rush levels. Every sixth level is a sector boss that loses its temper once you take half the field.
Mystery boxes hide ten power-ups, from shields, lasers and freeze to slow motion and double score. Big cuts and quick follow-up cuts multiply your points, and each level awards up to three stars. When the campaign is done there is an endless mode that keeps getting harder, a daily challenge that is the same for everyone each day, time attack on the levels you have beaten, and leaderboards for all of them. Progress is saved automatically and follows a free TapNPlay account to every device.
How to play
- Move along the glowing walls, then step into the dark void to start drawing a line.
- Return to any wall to close the line. The side without the boss is claimed.
- Do not let enemies touch your open line: the fuse they light burns toward you. Hold retrace to walk the line back.
- Claim 80% of the field, or trap the boss in a tiny pocket, to clear the level. Claim 90% or beat the boss and lose no lives for three stars.
- Claim the ? boxes for power-ups, and chain quick cuts for bigger scores.
