About Vecter
Vecter thrusts you into an endless, procedurally‑generated runner‑shooter where you pilot a ship at breakneck speed, blasting anything that blocks your path. Survival is measured by how long you can stay alive while racking up kills, with a Save Anytime feature available.
Daily and global Steam leaderboards record each run, and the game offers five distinct modes, full RGB ship styling, custom music, and retro CRT visuals. You can also share exact track seeds with friends, making every competition fair and repeatable.
01 / THE GUIDE
Core Gameplay
You control a ship that accelerates continuously, aiming to survive as long as possible while destroying obstacles that appear on an endless, procedurally generated track. The game records each run for leaderboard comparison.
There is no explicit win condition; the challenge is to avoid crashing for as long as possible. The game supports saving at any point, allowing you to return to your progress later.
- Focus on early obstacle patterns to build momentum before tackling denser sections.
- Observe the speed increase to anticipate when reaction time will be most critical.

Leaderboards
Vecter features daily Steam leaderboards that reset each day, preserving the top score permanently for the player who achieves it. Global leaderboards also exist for broader competition.
Billboards in‑game display where top players died, providing a visual reminder of the hardest sections.
- Check the death billboards to learn which track segments cause most failures.
- Aim for consistent daily runs to increase chances of securing a permanent top spot.

- Use Training mode to familiarize yourself with a new seed before attempting Hardcore.
- Select a mode that matches your skill level to avoid unnecessary frustration.

Audio & Visual Integration
Players can drop MP3, FLAC, or OGG files into a folder for custom background music, and YouTube videos can be played directly in‑game. Stereo sound is provided by default.
These audio options are independent of the core gameplay and can be toggled via the in‑game volume controls.
- Use high‑energy tracks to match the fast‑paced action and maintain focus.
- Test YouTube playback on a short clip before committing to a full‑length video.
