Galaxy On Fire 2 is a spaceflight simulation video game. The game revolves around spaceflight and space combat, set in a universe with multiple star systems. You can fight enemies/friends, mine for ore, trade commodities, and complete jobs such as freelance missions. | |||
This port contains a loader of the Android release of Galaxy on Fire 2, based on the Android SO Loader by TheFloW. The loader provides a tailored, minimalistic Android-like environment to run the official ARMv6 game executable on the PS Vita. | |||
Note that this is not Galaxy on Fire 2: HD Edition, so this port unfortunately does not have the Valkyrie and Supernova DLCs. | |||

In this game, you'll step into the shoes of Keith T. Maxwell, an intergalactic adventurer and war hero.

There, he faces off against a mysterious alien armada wreaking havoc on the warring races in the area. | |||
Although Keith's ultimate goal is to return home, he is drawn into a deadly plot to investigate and stop the alien menace. Along the way, he must navigate treacherous space pirates, negotiate with shady characters, explore new territories, and trade cargo in order to uncover the truth and save the galaxy from destruction. | |||
The game features a rich and engrossing storyline that takes you through a fully 3D, war-torn galaxy with over 10 hours of action-packed gameplay. Alternatively, you can strike out on your own interplanetary journey, mining asteroids, trading ore and supplies, taking on mercenary missions, working as a pirate, and manufacturing new weapons and equipment. | |||
You can also buy and customize more than 30 different types of spaceships to aid them in various missions, such as escorting convoys under pirate attack, capturing intergalactic criminals, rescuing alien VIPs, transporting valuable goods between star systems, commanding mercenaries on dangerous tactical assignments, and recovering alien technology from the darkest corners of the galaxy. The game culminates in an explosive conclusion that sets the entire galaxy on fire. | |||
