Boostbound: Jetpack Shooter

Hold to boost. Let go to fall. Your gun fires on its own.

Boostbound is a one-thumb side-scrolling shooter that climbs. Every floor is a run through drones, turrets and gunners, and every tenth floor is a boss: the Warden, the Gunship, the Ram and the Hive, each one tougher on the next lap up.

A death never sends you back down. You keep your floor, your gold and your boosts. It costs one energy, and you go again.

WHAT YOU COLLECT

• 8 pilots, each levelled up and evolved with Evolve Parts

• Gear that rolls: 9 types in 5 rarities, from Common to Mythic, with bonus stats and an item level from the floor it dropped on

• 25 skills to roll and level, five worn at once: a second life, shields, piercing shots, an auto-bomb

• Ammo pickups mid-run, from Scatter to Plasma

WHY YOU COME BACK

• Global leaderboards for Highest Floor and Enemies Defeated. They are brand new, so your name on the board is within reach.

• Three daily missions, and a bonus for clearing all three

• A 7-day login calendar

• A free skill roll every day, and a Bonus Roll for a short ad

• Auto-Play: watch your pilot clear floors on its own, 30 minutes for a short ad, or unlock it for good

FAIR BY DESIGN

• The odds of every box and roll are one tap away, in the Shop and on the Skills page

• Ads are optional rewards. Remove Ads takes the between-run ads away for good.

• Ad-Free + Offline removes every ad and lets you play with no connection

Boostbound needs an internet connection to play, unless you own Ad-Free + Offline.

An arcade shoot 'em up and side scroller with roguelite loot: a jetpack, a tower of floors, robots, drones and boss battles, and gear and skills that keep rolling.
