Gameplay

Blast your way through a vibrant, straight-shot series of enemy-filled rooms—each offering two doorways that ultimately lead you down the same path of escalating mayhem. Arm yourself with upgrades, worms, and items that boost your offensive power in wild, unexpected ways. Chain lightning triggers explosive on-hit effects, while elemental powers like burning, poison, and frost add extra layers of destruction. Feel the rush as you stack critical hit bonuses and experiment with bizarre synergies that can fill the screen with chaos. With each new room, foes grow tougher, demanding clever combos and relentless firepower. Will you push your build to its absolute limit, or get overwhelmed by the swarm?
