Stellar Run: the AIKA basin combat trial
Pilot a scout craft across a fortified 2D platform gauntlet carved into the crash site.
This singular sandbox fuses traversal, dodging, and weapons management into one extended browser encounter while the full Unreal slice loads.
Why this mega-sim matters
Campaign-authentic handling
The interceptor inherits its thrust curves, shield tuning, and projectile timing directly from the Unreal module so browser pilots train on the real thing.
Escalating wave cadence
Three combat waves stack platforming pressure with smarter drone routes, mirroring how the crash basin will pace open-world assaults.
Instant community proving ground
No downloads, no launcher—just load the page, grab the arrow keys, and feed AIKA telemetry that keeps the newsletter and SEO heartbeat alive.
STELLAR RUN • PLATFORM GAUNTLET
AIKA excavated a training trench beneath the crash canopy. Your job: keep the scout interceptor airworthy while swatting drones from the ledges.
Survive three escalating drone waves without letting hull integrity fall to zero.

Tactical hints
- Break line of sight by ducking beneath platforms before you pop up to fire.
- Short, rhythmic lift bursts keep the ship steady enough to land clean hits.
- Red-marked wingmen strafe faster—delete them first so the blues cannot pin you down.
