Close Order is an arcade shooter with one simple goal: become a badass armada! In this mashup of genres, defeat enemies for parts to build up an armada of ships around you. Fight from a distance, charge headfirst into battle, or create a mix of anything and everything. You decide how to play!

Close Order is an arcade shooter with one simple goal: become a badass armada! It's not about you. It's about other ships around you known as minions that exponentially increase your firepower! Defeat enemies for parts. Combine those parts into minions. Move them around your armada however you please. Become badass! Play through a short, episodic narrative in Story mode to discover the fate of humanity, or boot up Survival mode for fast-paced action!Features Grow from a single ship into a massive armada! Plays like a shooter, feels like arcade, acts like tower defense, relies on strategy, and is always distinctly bullet hell! Experience the remnants of the galaxy post-Earth in Story mode. Tackle the story your way: missions are set up in an episodic fashion through interconnected hub worlds. Not in it for the story? No problem! Boot up Survival mode where you start with nothing and must grow your armada in order to survive. Duke it out in Simple Survival, where levels have pre-made waves of progressively stronger enemies. Too easy? Take it one step further with Custom Chaos, a customizable version of Simple Survival that allows you to choose the level you'd like to play, the type and difficulty of enemies, and the amount of enemies you wish to face. Whether you want a powerful story or a badass gameplay experience, Close Order has it all!
