Shove Nova
Launches 5 November 2026 · PC

Story
Shove Nova is a fast-paced 2D arena game where colorful energy spheres collide, grow, and fight to knock each other out of a shrinking battlefield. Collect energy, grow your sphere, and use your momentum to send rivals flying out of the arena. Blast enemies away with shockwaves, blink across the arena, slow your rivals, and combine abilities with physics to turn a bad situation around. Portals, black holes, bounce walls, speed zones, and other arena features can completely change the battle. Use them to your advantage—or get thrown into them yourself. Even when you're outmatched, the right buff can completely turn the battle around. Time your power-up, survive the pressure, and strike back when your opponent least expects it. Win rounds, choose upgrades, and shape your sphere into a stronger and more chaotic build as the battles become increasingly intense. The arena keeps shrinking. Enemies get tougher. Your build gets stronger. Survive the chaos and face the massive final boss.
