Rocket Attack on ThroShade
Rocket Attack is a browser arcade game connected to the ThroShade social network. Survive waves of UFOs, blocks, and drones, chase a high score, unlock profile badges, and compete on a public leaderboard that shows real member ranks in plain text.
Game mechanics
You pilot a ship through an escalating swarm. Obstacles and enemies arrive faster over time, so early calm runs turn into chaotic survival tests. The goal is duration and score: stay alive, avoid collisions, and push your best run higher. Guests can play immediately at play.throshade.com without creating an account first.
When you are ready to keep progress, claim a qualifying run with the email address you use (or will use) for ThroShade. Claiming links the score to that email so badges and leaderboard ranks can attach to a full member profile after signup or login. Runs below the badge threshold still help you practice; scores of 30 or higher are the unlock gate for Rocket badges.
Unlockable ThroShade account badges
Rocket Attack badges are account achievements displayed on ThroShade profiles. They are earned from claimed scores, not purchased cosmetics. Current score thresholds:
- Rocket Rookie — reach a claimed score of 30 or higher.
- Rocket Ace — reach a claimed score of 75 or higher.
- Rocket Legend — reach a claimed score of 150 or higher.
- Rocket Overlord — reach a claimed score of 300 or higher.
Higher tiers stack with lower ones as your best claimed score grows. Badges appear on your ThroShade profile so friends can see arcade progress next to your social identity. Detailed product context lives on the About ThroShade page.
Top runs leaderboard
The public leaderboard below lists members with claimed Rocket Attack best scores. Rankings are shown as readable text (username and score) so visitors can see active play without opening the private application shell.
Leaderboard scores appear here as members claim qualifying runs and connect them to ThroShade accounts. Play now, claim a 30+ score with your email, then join ThroShade to publish your rank on this public list.
How Rocket Attack fits the social network
ThroShade is a social platform with profiles, galleries, chat, and messaging. Rocket Attack is the arcade onboarding and competition layer: it gives new visitors something useful to do immediately and gives members bragging rights that travel back into profiles through badges and ranked scores. Play is hosted at play.throshade.com; identity, badges, and social features live on throshade.com.
Community expectations still apply. Competitive shade and playful rivalry are welcome. Harassment, hate, or abusive targeting of other players or members is not. See the Community Guidelines for the full boundary language.
