About the Game

Shoot corrupting monsters and save mankind's last hard-drive with your rechargeable laser-beam! ... But your aiming has a mind of its own, so you'll just have to do your best!

This is a tight arcade arena shooter with a twist: the crosshair bounces around in the screen and you can only fire your laser in its direction. So it's for you to line yourself with the crosshair and the enemies to shoot at them.

With 40 levels, over 30 unique upgrades and weapons to unlock, and 3 different difficulties, you may find this game not only unexpectedly playable but also extremely addictive.
