Build. Dodge. Loop. Something’s coming.
About This Game
Tenvader is a roguelike arcade shooter where you merge strange blocks to power up your ship and face waves of evolving enemies. Survive long enough, and the universe starts to break — time loops, enemies mutate, and a cosmic force begins to interfere.
Every block you place changes the way you play. Build smart. Fight hard. Try to remember what’s real.
Core Features
Merge blocks to evolve your ship
Collect and place block-shaped upgrades on your ship to boost stats, unlock weapons, or trigger powerful effects. Stack the same type of block to grow stronger — or fall apart trying.
Bullet hell meets puzzle building
Move fast and think faster. Each round combines arcade dodging with quickfire building decisions.
⏳ Time pressure with real consequences
After every wave, you get a block reward — but only if you finish in time. Fail, and the void may punish you with broken or cursed blocks.
Procedural loops, persistent tension
As you dive deeper into the game’s loops, enemies become more unpredictable, boss fights twist, and the mysterious Overseer begins to watch your every move.
Unique boss encounters
Each boss introduces new mechanics and challenges. In higher loops, they gain new abilities — pushing you to rethink your builds and tactics.
️ Lore hidden in fragments
Discover strange messages, events, and stage effects hinting at a larger mystery behind the loop. Who broke the cycle — and can you fix it?

From the world of Rikerat
Tenvader is part of a larger universe of strange, beautiful games by Rikerat — where nothing is stable, time is a circle, and even your ship might not survive the truth.
