When humanity ran out of planets to plunder, it turned its attention to the sky. Now, private corporations pay elite bounty hunters a fortune to harvest precious minerals from shooting stars.

Your debts are many and your nerves steel. Good luck skyjacker.

Made in one week for Godot Wild Jam #93.

How to play

Pilot your ship through the debris field and destroy all other hunters eyeing the shooting star for collection.

Watch out for harvester drones that will continuously spawn and drain the star of its resources until all enemy fighters are destroyed. Shoot them to buy yourself time if you need but be warned, running out of ammo in a dogfight is a death sentence and you'll be forced to abandon the bounty.

A Windows build is available for download if you experience performance issues in the browser.
