    Description

    The lights in the sky are fading. A massive shell around an ailing star is the last bastion of a civilization witness to a cosmic extinction level event. But at the edge of the gloom lurks a horde driven mad by darkness, bent on snuffing out the last of the light. The Laser is online and the Sphere is in jeopardy! Crank to aim and hold ๐Ÿ… to fire. Just don't let the laser overheat. Hold ๐Ÿ…‘ to tractor in materials to upgrade and repair the Sphere between enemy waves. Press ๐Ÿ…‘ + ๐Ÿ… to deploy a Stellar Bomb for instant breathing room.

    Tips Fire in shorter bursts to avoid overheating. Collect materials quickly for a clear view of incoming ships. Power Cells help if the laser is constantly overheating. Recharge Circuits help refill Power Cells more rapidly. Reduce Shield damage by facing an attacker before collision. Tractor Amps help collect materials more quickly. Only use Stellar Bombs as a last resort. Installing a new Shield Emitter also repairs existing emitters. Shield Repair costs increase with each Shield Emitter. Save materials to unlock more powerful upgrades sooner. Even double Drones can be overwhelmed. Thin the herd. Install a Quantum Core to abandon this timeline when defeat is imminent.

    Accessibility

    This game uses the crank with the A and B buttons during play and the d-pad in menus. It requires a fair amount of precision with the crank.
