About this game

Every great scientific breakthrough begins with a simple interaction. Experience the visceral satisfaction of your first stress test. It’s just you, a basic switch, and a lightbulb destined for oblivion. Rotate the dial, watch the filament glow, and enjoy physics-based destruction that has never felt this personal.

Reinvest your hard-earned profits into a sprawling tech tree. Enhance your control board, improve voltage stability, or unlock complex memory modules. Whether you want to boost your passive income or maximize the output of your tools, there’s an upgrade path for every type of mad scientist.

Why stick to a single button? Attack the bulbs with a growing collection of tactile gadgets. Crank up the heat with Rotational Switches, slide the power to the max with DJ Sliders, master the rhythm of Wave Buttons, and test your brain with Memory Buttons. It’s you and your console against the glass—make sure you win.

Think all bulbs just sit there and take it? Think again. Boss Bulbs fight back! They regenerate health, launch direct attacks on your cursor, and even sabotage your dashboard by breaking your tools. You must repair your gear and dodge attacks while solving intricate Circular Bank Case Locks and Cable Puzzles to deliver the final blow.
