Resistance archive / Field manual 3000

Know your enemy.
Own the opening.

Your guide to three operators, signature combat systems, hostile machines, and all 20 shuffled sectors. These are the same 3D models you will encounter in-game.

Combat essentials

Simple controls. Sharp instincts.

Move

A / D or ← / →

Jump

W / ↑ / SPACE

Hold to shoot

Z / X / ENTER

Pause / resume

ESC / P

Aim with the directional keys; without a direction, you fire forward. Up also jumps. Esc or P pauses and resumes. On touchscreens, play upright in portrait or rotate whenever you prefer, then drag horizontally to move; release or return to the touch origin to stop smoothly. Double-tap anywhere on the battlefield within 280ms to jump, or activate Wraith’s airborne phase dash. Your lance auto-fires in your facing direction and tracks aerial targets within ±25°; mobile auto-fire starts as soon as you deploy and stops during pauses, transitions, or defeat. Titan can drag downward to release stored kinetic charge. Desktop players retain manual controls and can enable auto-fire in the pause menu; Down + Fire still triggers Titan’s nova.

01

Clear the sector

Move left and right, jump onto raised platforms, and eliminate the required hostiles. Supply drones do not count toward the objective.

02

Break the boss core

The arena locks when the boss arrives. Read the attack warning, dodge the volley, then fire at the outlined core when it says CORE OPEN.

03

Keep your run alive

Shoot supply drones to drop pickups. Every 10 enemy kills restores one heart; defeating a boss restores two. Forcefield blocks all enemy collision damage and unlimited projectiles for 30 seconds. Another pickup refreshes its timer; paused time does not count. Watch the decimal countdown beneath your hearts and listen for the final five-second warning.

04

Push beyond the end

Boss victories pick a random world from 20 environments, excluding your last two. Stage numbering never resets; every 20 cleared stages adds a campaign cycle. Hostile targets rise by two per stage. Speed and core health scale with stage and cycle, not scenery.

05

Retarget your world

Choose your initial drop zone beneath the operator preview. During a run, press ESC/P or WARP SECTOR and choose any world. The 400ms cross-fade preserves health, shield time, kills, enemy positions, score, pickups, boss phases, and operator charge. Resume when ready.

06

Return to Base

HOME pauses the mission and opens an abort confirmation. RESUME COMBAT keeps your run intact. CONFIRM & RETURN HOME submits your final score, ends the run, and returns to the landing page. If submission fails, retry or resume without losing progress.

01 / Operators

Choose your advantage.

01 / Live 3D model

Assault specialist

COMMANDO

Balanced movement and eight hearts. The reliable choice for your first deployment.

HEARTS

SPEED

JUMP

02 / Laser system

Build your firing solution.

01 / Live 3D model

Field equipment

L-09 Arc lance

Your standard-issue weapon streams 8 piercing pulses per second. Smart auto-aim tracks airborne threats, exposed boss cores, and supply drones while you move.

03 / Contact reports

Identify. Adapt. Eliminate.

01 / Live 3D model

Ground assault unit

REAVER

An armored pursuer with two hit points. Closes the distance along the ground.

COUNTERMEASURE

Two laser hits take it down. Fire while retreating or jump over it to create space. Touching its body costs a heart.

04 / Priority targets

Find the weak point.

Boss armor is invulnerable. Only the outlined lower core takes damage during its bright, open phase. Attacks are announced before firing.

01 / Live 3D model

Mobile artillery fortress

SIEGE TITAN

Twin shoulder mortars launch arcing bombs after a warning flash.

COUNTERMEASURE

Move out from under the falling bombs. Fire at the bright chest core while it is open; dark armor cannot be damaged.

05 / Recovery systems

Stay in the fight.

Shoot green supply drones and collect their drops. Bombs hurt only on direct contact; the sparks after an explosion do not cause damage.

01 / Live 3D model

Field equipment

HEALTH

Restores one heart, up to your hero’s maximum.

The campaign / 20 shuffled sectors

One planet. No safe ground.

VERDANT OUTPOST cinematic in-game backdrop Sector 01

VERDANT OUTPOST

Bioluminescent canopies reclaim a forgotten defense perimeter.

Hostile target = 8 + 2 × stage index → defeat the stage boss → restore 2 hearts

Choose any drop zone. Boss victories shuffle the next world, excluding your last two environments. Every 20 cleared stages starts a stronger cycle; enemy speed and boss health scale with stage and cycle, never the backdrop. Pause to warp without losing progress.
