About
You are the last Biocore Pilot — a survivor stranded on a dying alien world.
Your only hope lies within the Biocore system, an ancient technology capable of creating life, weapons, and power beyond human understanding.
But every pulse of energy draws swarms of hostile creatures closer.
Survive long enough to rebuild, upgrade, and uncover what remains of humanity’s final outpost.
You don’t fight alone — command a squad of AI-controlled soldiers, each with unique stats and weapons.
Soldiers automatically shoot enemies, protect you, and level up alongside you.
Merge duplicate soldier cards to strengthen your team — each merge grants a permanent +5% damage bonus to all allies.
Equip alien weapons, experiment with mutators, and customize your formation for any threat.
Discover alien tech with unpredictable behavior:
Homing missiles, bouncing projectiles, or exploding shots
Every run reshapes how your arsenal behaves
Combine weapons with soldier perks to create unstoppable synergies
Your greatest breakthroughs come from survival itself.
Complete achievements during your runs to unlock powerful Perks — rare, permanent augmentations that change how you and your squad fight.
Each achievement unlocks a specific Perk
Perks can be equipped to soldiers to grant stat boosts and unique effects
Build specialized roles: glass-cannon snipers, poison spreaders, explosive bruisers, or support units
Perks are permanent unlocks, but loadouts are yours to customize every run
Progress is tracked across sessions — every milestone brings you closer to your next evolution.
Collect Biocores to upgrade everything — permanently.
Choose between randomized upgrades every level.
Unlock permanent enhancements between sessions.
Increase projectile counts, lifesteal, speed, raw damage… and now, Perk power.
Every run feels different, every upgrade matters.
Each session has a strict time limit.
Defeat enemies to extend your life — or watch the clock run out.
Every boss kill adds 60 seconds, but with each passing wave, enemies grow stronger.
Face escalating hordes across alien biomes:
Enemies scale every wave
Defeat bosses with massive HP bars
How long can you survive before the planet consumes you?
Adjust the difficulty slider to define your experience:
Higher difficulty = stronger enemies, higher Biocore multipliers, and bigger rewards
Each difficulty tracks its own highest wave record
Prove your dominance at every level.
Procedural wave escalation system
Dozens of weapon mutators and stat effects
Fully automated companion AI and soldier formation
Merging system for team-wide permanent buffs
Achievement-driven Perk unlock system with soldier loadouts

Fun bullet heaven, though definitely needs a little bit more work done. Having a variety of characters on a team is a fun addition, and does open up some pretty fun strategies. It looks like there are a lot of unlockables and achievements, so every run contributes to your progression. I like being able to equip and assign weapons to my characters, and it's really cool that it alters their natural attack. But I do think that the text is a bit small on items, and it takes effort to read them. It also took a moment to figure out how to equip the items, it wasn't immediately intuitive. I think the game could also benefit from controller support, and an auto attack toggle. Having your characters attack just the nearest enemies is a little disruptive, and can be limiting to play around. With all that being said, I do think the core of the game is a ton of fun. Like other comments mentioned it just needs a bit more polish, because the potential is there.
great game though it needs a bit more polishing and bug fixes
I played this game so long that i missed my exam. I recommend
Definitely needs a bit of polishing and more content considering the potential it has, but otherwise it's still not a bad game to occasionally boot up and play.
solid game, with a good foundation. can get you addicted easily. i don't regret getting it.
