Gonga Games — interactive
A fast-paced 2D space shooter and mining hybrid. Shatter block-built machines, crack asteroids for ore, and spend everything you salvage on a deep, branching upgrade tree.

The core loop
Every enemy you destroy and every asteroid you crack drops the ore you need to grow stronger. There is no downtime between fighting and earning — the risk you take is the upgrade you earn.
Tear through block-built patrols. Every block has its own health — and often its own weapon.
Crack asteroid fields for bonus ore between the bullets — but mining leaves you exposed.
Feed salvage into a branching tree: firepower, defense, drones, items, mining, mobility.
Push through 26 stages and six bosses to the final showdown — or take Permadeath.
What's inside
A frontier mining sector, a ship you assemble upgrade by upgrade, and enemies that come apart block by block.
Every enemy is assembled from destructible blocks. A patrol ship may carry a turret block that peppers you from range, a laser block that sweeps the arena, or a blaster block firing ring bursts. Strip the dangerous blocks first — or punch straight through the core.
Chasers, dashers, figure-eight weavers, snaking patrols, spiral divers and edge-sweeping runs — each one demands a different dodge.
Asteroid fields drift through the sector packed with extra ore — and lightning-charged asteroids that chain arcs across the field.
Firepower, defense, drones, items, mining and mobility. Upgrade paths branch and stack — ricocheting rounds, rechargeable shields, hull regeneration — so two players can forge very different ships.
Combat drones fire alongside you, collector drones sweep up ore, rockets hit hard, and the bullet-eraser clears the screen when it all goes wrong.
Easy for a relaxed cruise, Hard for veterans, and Permadeath: one life across all 26 stages.
Media
