HELIOBANE Demo

Want the full game? Wishlist HELIOBANE↗ (Opens in new tab) on its own page. The Wishlist button on this page only saves the free demo.

Play the first three stages of World 1, from the Tharsis Belt to Admiral Husk, in the free demo of HELIOBANE. Fly the sun-killer gunship against a hive that eats stars, with 320×256 pixel art, parallax skies, a tracker soundtrack and digitised speech.

Build your first loadout at the Magpie, Old Mott’s salvage shop. Swap front guns, graze enemy bullets to build heat, and fire the Breaker to tear open their armour. Use flares when the screen gets too crowded.

Face the Quarry Maw, Leviathan Choir and Admiral Husk. Enemy waves vary between runs, and Easy, Normal and Hard let you choose your challenge.

The demo supports gamepads, optional controller rumble, remappable controls and eight languages with voice-over. It keeps its own save and ends after stage 3. Secret routes and their special guns are exclusive to the full game.

The full game continues across fifteen stages and three worlds, with more Heralds, hidden side routes and weapon upgrades through level seven.
