What is Nyos?

Launching missiles. Blowing stuff up. Collecting coins. Flying in circles. Feeling awesome whilst carving a path of destruction around your seemingly insignificant little ship. All combined into a single game. Yes, I know those are not proper sentences, but they look cool and provide a nice dramatic effect.

Graphical Awesomeness

In what can only be described as an glorified interactive fireworks show, Nyos is a graphical masterpiece. It is the epitome of flash game graphical-goodie overkill, with dynamic lighting, massive amounts of particles, and even displacement mapping.

8 Different Enemies

Kamikaze ships keep you on the move. Hulking motherships blast your ship to pieces with homing plasma torpedos.

6 Unique Weapons

Need to stop enemies in their tracks? Load up on Freeze Missiles. Need insane firepower? Arm your ship with highly volatile Kinetic Missiles.

Dominate the World

Need a bigger challenge than the prefabricated levels? Rack up massive combos in Infinite Mode and try to reach the top of the global leaderboards.
