Game Synopsis
Solar Flux is a puzzle-strategy title for iPhone that sends players on a mission to revive fading stars. You pilot a thrust-powered, omni-directional craft to gather and deliver plasma shards, all while racing against the clock and facing dynamic space hazards. The tone is atmospheric and exploratory, with emphasis on precision movement and route planning.
Core Gameplay and Controls
Movement takes place in a zero-gravity environment, so momentum and careful thrusting are central to navigation. Levels require collecting plasma pieces and transporting them to target points without losing them to the void.
Key environmental threats include:
- Swirling asteroid fields that can knock your ship off course
- Sudden stellar explosions capable of destroying fragments
- Intense bursts of radiation from solar flares

- More than 80 distinct missions to complete
- 18 themed sectors that group levels by setting and mechanics
- Four visually different galaxies that change aesthetics and hazards
A three-tier rating system encourages mastery, providing extra objectives for players who want to perfect each stage.
