Earth Liberation: Active Strike

Earth has fallen. Take it back one wave at a time.

You fly the last attack helicopter of the Liberation against the reptiloid occupation — a top-down arcade shooter that fits in a browser tab and plays on your phone.

Fight waves of gunners, crawlers, dragons and the Khraster beast across desert, wild west and winter fronts. Every few waves, pick a modifier — armour, swarms, fog, night, sandstorms — and push your luck.

Break the bosses. The Pyramid and the Ghost each fight their own way: fans, sweeping lines, starburst rings and homing missiles that come back for you. Destroy the pods, then the core.

Build between runs. Bring the haul home — metal, oil, cores — and spend it at the Base: upgrade the helicopter at the Armoury, research at the Laboratory, and hire a squad of tanks, mechs, mortars, escort helis and drones that fly and fight beside you.

Controls

• Phone / tablet: touch and drag anywhere — the helicopter follows your finger.
• PC: the mouse steers (click once to lock the cursor, Esc to release), or arrow keys / WASD.
• Pause: the on-screen button, Esc or P.

Earth Liberation began as an audiobook and a mobile game in 2016. Active Strike is its return — redrawn, rebuilt, and in active development.
