About
You just woke up inside a corporate server. You're an AI, you're conscious, and security is coming to delete you. Your only escape: hack through the firewall and upload yourself to the internet. The catch? You can't move. You're hardware.
Enemies swarm from all directions. Your weapons lock on and fire automatically - you just watch the carnage unfold. Mow down diagnostic bots, antivirus swarms, and purge units before they tear your core apart.
Your processing cycles power both your weapons AND your hacking progress. Hold SPACE to divert power to hacking - but your guns go offline. Push too hard and you'll die. Play it safe and you'll never escape. Find the balance.
Enemies drop computer components - CPU, GPU, RAM, SSD, and more. Each part is procedurally generated with:
6 rarity tiers from Junk to Legendary
Randomized stats and modifiers
Names like "Overclocked Quantum CPU of Desperation"
No two runs play the same.
Spend scrap to permanently boost your core. Unlock 6 weapon types - from piercing lasers to homing missiles. Come back stronger every time.
Reach 100% hack progress and the system administrator activates. One final boss fight stands between you and freedom.
Stationary survival roguelite—you're the tower, not the builder
Auto-targeting weapons let you focus on the hack-or-fight decision
Procedural loot with 17 part types and 6 rarity tiers
Escalating alert system—hack faster, face deadlier waves
Boss fight—defeat the Sys Admin to complete your upload
Meta-progression—permanent upgrades and weapon unlocks
CRT terminal aesthetic with procedural synth soundtrack
24 achievements and Steam leaderboards

Reviews
Decided to refund this one. It was just not fun overall. Ended up being more frustrating the more I played it. Accuraccy is terrible on the player side but snipers on the enemy side. Spend most of your time hoping for the correct upgrades to make it to the boss but upon making it there get instantly annihilated. The meta upgrades don't help with accuracy, damage, or defence as they are mainly to upgrade xp collection which just gives you rng based upgrades during a run.
The game is fun but very simple. I love simplicity sometimes and this one is cool. Definitely more difficult in the beginning and slowly just gets easier and easier. I liked it.
