Galaxy on Fire 2

Galaxy on Fire is a space-shooter RPG where you carry out different missions to earn credits to upgrade your ship and its weapons and shield, avoiding the evil alien race the Voids. There’s a choice of virtual stick or tilt-based controls. There are also two view modes, standard and free view, which gives pinch-and-zoom support to the battlefield. The trading system has 170 different commodities, and you will need certain gear to get items off spaceships and mine asteroids.

  • A vast galaxy with over 20 star systems and more than 100 individual planets and space stations
  • More than 30 customizable spaceships and hundreds of different weapons systems, power-ups and commodities
  • A unique mixture of story-driven, mission-based and sandbox gameplay
