Blaze is a retro/minimalistic styled sci-fi first person flight/shooter action game. The game can be played almost single handedly with just mouse. It's about shooting a lot of alien things (in semi-randomized missions?). The alien things are trying capture all your base, and have already captured at least half of it. You have to defend the base and capture the alien controlled areas back. Or something like that...
Infrared also helps you see in the dark. It's either alternative color for the Night Vision or it is an actual alternative vision mode that could allow you to see warm things with brighter colors (this functionality not in yet).
