About the Game

A sophisticated malware created with a sole objective: bypass the defenses of malfunctioning computer systems by erasing their cyberspace, in order to reset them to their default state and bring them back to life again.

Now it's time for you to take on a new job, in a new system. Nothing more than just the same old routine... probably.

Enemies are fragile and can be erased in one single hit, but so are you, malware; you must wipe out every single defences in an area, in order to proceed to the next one. If you fail, iterate and try again.

You are equipped with various abilities (or functions, if you prefer); a good malware knows how to use each tool at its disposal, to be as efficient as possible during combat. Jump, dodge attacks, deflect bullets, throw your trusty scythe. Do everything in your power to complete your tasks.
