How it plays

Mandris is a twin-stick arcade shooter seen from a chase camera above your ship. Movement and aim are separate: steer with WASD or the arrow keys while your guns track the cursor, and hold the left mouse button to keep firing. Each ship puts its own weapons on the right mouse button, Space and Shift, so switching ships changes how you fight, not just how hard you hit.

A sortie is a run of encounters that ends in a boss. Kills drop credits, repair orbs and upgrades. Between missions you spend credits in the Field Store, and the upgrades carry forward until the run ends. Weapon drops bolt new guns onto your hull mid-fight: turrets, side cannons, missile hives and more.

What's in it

If you like these, try Mandris

Mandris borrows the feel of twin-stick arena shooters such as Geometry Wars and Nex Machina, the pick-up-and-play waves of arcade shmups, and the role-based squads of co-op games. You fly a full 3D ship through hand-built mission spaces, and each boss changes its attacks as you break it down.

Questions

Do I need to download anything?
No. Mandris runs in the browser tab. The first visit downloads its art and sound once; later visits are faster.
Which browsers work?
Current Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Safari on desktop or laptop. It needs WebGL; the page says so if your browser can't start 3D graphics.
Can I play with a controller?
Yes. A standard gamepad works for moving, aiming and abilities.
Is there multiplayer?
Yes, private co-op for up to four pilots. Share an invite link with friends.

One click and you're flying.
