Nova Drift distills the mechanical depth and strategy of an ARPG into classic arcade space combat. Control an endlessly evolving bio-mechanical ship, face legions of strange and deadly foes, and ride the wake of a dying star across the void.

Lovely asteroids games. 150 hours and i keep playing, devs keeps adding. Very Good. 9/10 worth the price.
I bought this game nearly 4 years ago and to this day I'm shocked it's still receiving content updates past it's 1.0 release. I've played on and off since then, and it's always been a joy to come back to and get a few quick and chaotic runs going. I have most if not all of the gear unlocks and yet I feel I've hardly even scratched the surface of what the game has to offer, as evidenced by my playtime. So many distinct weapons, play styles, and combinations. I can already see so much replayability in this game. And the absurd part is it's only 18 USD, feels like there hasn't even been a price hike since the 4 years I got the game. This is a passion project, through and through.

For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 23 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 14 places towards #1, and the 2,515 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

This is a very good game. It takes the form of a roguelike where you control a ship in space, shooting down everything that happens to enter your vicinity and looting them for EXP which you use to gain upgrades. Over the course of your journey, you'll fight around 11 unique bosses, as well as enemies that slowly expand their moveset rather than just size and damage. There isn't as much variety as one may expect, as the vast number of choices you have at any given level combined with the abundance of rerolls means you can pretty much get whatever you want whenever you want, although some upgrades are locked behind other upgrades and there's a subset of mods called "Wild Mods" that appear whenever they feel like it. Where this game really shines, though, is in its potential for strength. Once you get certain upgrades, you'll unlock changes to your moveset and gameplay called super mods, and these are strong. For instance, one of them gives you a permanent 40% damage boost at the cost of your main weapon, one of them completely eliminates all spread between shots, one of them gives you superpowers for having unused upgrade points, one of them makes it so that you just don't touch anything anymore, one of them lets you teleport through things for massive damage, etc. And these combined can make you incredibly powerful. As of right now, the game ends at[spoiler]wave 12[/spoiler], but you can go for as long as you want, and you won't get outscaled until the very, very, very late game as long as you know what you're doing. Overall, Nova Drift is a very fun, almost charming roguelike with the potential for extremely powerful builds, and I'd recommend it to everyone not put of by the lack of a story.
very nice
Bueno creo q ya se nota mi amor por los juegos tipo "lluvia de balas", Nova Drift es un poco especial al resto, para empezar el movimiento no es WASD, simplemente tienes un propulsor para ir adonde la nave mira, das algo de impulso y con el raton apuntas y disparas, al principio es raro pero desp drifteas con la nave alrrededor de un jefe sin q te toque. Tenemos 3 tipos de mejoras unicas para elejir en los dos primeros niveles 1º Armas, 2º Cuerpo y 3º Escudos. Los Mods o mejoras los pillas al subir de nivel desp de elejir El arma, cuerpo y escudo y modifican estos 3 y por ultimo hay unos mods chetadisimos para el mid/late game
Voilà un jeu resté injustement trop longtemps dans mon backlog et qui est absolument GENIAL ! Graphiquement sublime, d'une fluidité à toute épreuve, d'une variété assez folle à travers ses modificateur et ses modes de jeu, Nova Drift est un jeu incroyable qui mérite toute votre attention ! Dubitatif quant à la singularité de son gameplay au départ, il s'avère en fait que c'est extrêmement maniable et le plaisir de jeu est immense ! Un vrai coup de coeur !

Hands down one of the best survivors-like games I've played. It takes the genre formula and throws it into space with actual skill-based shooting
