[Key Features]

  • Strategic Area Capture (Qix-like Gameplay) Step out of the safe zone to boldly draw lines and claim territory. But be warned—the moment an enemy touches your line, your efforts will vanish.

  • Roguelike Skill System Level up to enhance your craft through a variety of upgrades:

    • DASH: Move swiftly in critical moments to escape danger or capture territory instantly.

    • SHIELD: Generates an auto-shield that protects your craft from a single enemy strike.

    • MOTOR: Permanently increases the base movement speed of your craft.

  • Evolving Enemies & Phase System As your capture rate increases, the boss evolves through three distinct phases, deploying increasingly powerful bullet patterns. Experience the shifting intensity with neon color transitions and warning effects that signal each phase change.

  • Diverse Difficulties & Stages With EASY, NORMAL, and HARD presets, players of all skill levels can enjoy the challenge. Clear missions, earn S-ranks, and fill your Trophy Room.

  • Infinite Scalability, Custom Play (UGC) Beyond the default stages, you can load .png or .jpg files directly from your PC to instantly create your own custom levels. Our auto-scaling logic ensures any image is perfectly transformed into a playable game background.
