Field notes
Vortex Panic’s described modes range from a hundred-level campaign to survival runs with no finish line. The studio says its ticket counter offers fifty cosmetic prizes across twenty-five tiers, including hull shapes and sounds, and says none affects a player’s strength. The homepage also describes DisaStorm’s one-thumb release-and-launch mechanic; its release status is not clear from the page extract.
