❤ Capturing and Managing a Droid Squad

At the core of the gameplay, players can "hack" and take control of enemy robots, known as "droids". Starting with a weak droid, players must strategically capture more powerful variants to aid them. Each droid has unique stats and capabilities, such as speed, armor, and weaponry. Effectively switching between and coordinating this squad of acquired droids is crucial to surviving the game's increasingly difficult levels.

❤ Frenetic Twin-Stick Shooter Action

While the droid capturing mechanic is a unique twist, the game fundamentally plays like a fast-paced, twin-stick shooter. Players must rapidly dodge a hail of enemy fire from hordes of hostile droids while attempting to eliminate them. The action can become overwhelmingly "chaotic" and "exhilarating", especially in the later stages, creating an adrenaline-fueled experience.

❤ Progression Through Upgrades and Replayability

As players progress, they can acquire various power-ups and upgrades for their droid squad, creating a sense of progression and encouraging experimentation with different droid combinations and strategies. The game's high-score focus and rogue-like elements also provide incentive for repeated playthroughs, as players optimize their routes and droid management to achieve higher scores.

❤ Cooperative Mayhem

The game supports local co-op, allowing players to team up and coordinate their droid management and shooting. This cooperative mode adds an extra layer of strategy and communication, as players must work together to overcome the game's challenges.

❤ Retro-Inspired Visual Charm

The game's visual aesthetic takes clear inspiration from classic 8-bit and 16-bit era arcade shooters, featuring a vibrant, neon-infused pixel art style. This retro-futuristic look, combined with the atmospheric background music and sound effects, contribute to the game's overall charm and sense of nostalgia.
