Strata

STRATA

One craft. Every layer of the world.

Turn your phone sideways for the best view.

How it works

Climb above 12 km and your jet becomes a rocket
Touch down on land and it becomes a car
Hit the ground steeply, or press C while driving: it drills in
Land on the sea and it becomes a boat
Hit the sea steeply, or press C while sailing: it dives as a sub
Race up out of the sea or the rock and it launches as a jet

No crashes: every impact is a transformation, and every transformation is a trick. Chain them within 10 s to multiply your score; fly through rings for speed.

Paused

Strata Run

A timed race through all six forms: fourteen gates from the sky down through the sea, the seabed and the rock, along the road and up into space. Your best run comes back as a ghost to race.

Graphics adapts on its own too: the 3D view drops its resolution a notch when the frame rate does.

How to play

Every form, the same keys

W S faster / slower (the jet holds its speed when you let go)
A D turn: roll in the air, steer everywhere else
Space C up / down: nose up and down, rise and dive, climb and descend; on the road and the sea, take off (at 144 km/h) and dig in or dive
Shift boost · Q E rudder in the air

Mouse

Click the view and point where you want to go: every form steers itself there
Click or Shift boost · right-drag look around · wheel zoom
The keys still work on top (A D for a barrel roll) · Esc frees the mouse

Gamepad

Left stick turn and climb (pull back = nose up) · right stick look
RT faster · LT slower or brake · X boost
A up (take off, rise) · B down (dig, dive) · bumpers rudder
Start menu · Y back to the last gate

Anywhere

T Strata Run · G back to the last gate
1–6 jump to a form (loses your chain)
Esc menu · L logbook · M sound · H this page

Tricks

Every transformation is a trick, and so are skims, rolls, loops, big air and the sound barrier. Land the next one within 10 s to grow the multiplier; the chain banks when time runs out. Rings add points, speed and boost. Be all six forms in one chain for a Full Strata bonus. Burst out of the sea or the ground steeply and fast and you launch straight into the sky as a jet.
