Jarnasmal

Survive a bullet hell where your Wi-Fi signal is your lifeline. Delve into underground facilities, fight off massive swarms of enemies, and strategically build a mesh network of signal repeaters. If your connection is strong, you're a powerhouse. If the signal drops, all you have is a shovel.

About the Game

In this unique twist on the bullet hell genre, your high-tech blaster requires a live connection to your ground station. Every wall, corridor, and cavern blocks your signal.

  • Strong Connection: You receive an endless stream of ammunition, maximum damage, and maxed-out skills.

  • Weak Connection: Your gun stalls, your abilities degrade, and your explosions shrink.

  • No Connection: Your blaster is entirely useless—and a melee shovel is your only weapon against the horde.

Calculate optimal combinations to unlock unique boosts. Upgrade your repeaters to multiply their effects, or increase their radio performance with higher power, wall-penetration capabilities, and directional antennas.

You are outnumbered 1000 to 1 in your fight for the ultimate underground loot. The deeper you go, the deadlier the tech used against you. Prepare to dodge thousands of projectiles and fight off enemies that will climb walls, place mines, flood rooms, and deploy heavy tanks to eliminate you.

Do you have the strategy to keep your signal alive, or will you be left in the dark with nothing but a shovel?
