About this game
CONTROL THE DAEMON. COMMAND THE CURSOR
Fight escalating waves of enemies and bosses in a fast-paced action roguelite built around precision, positioning and rapid decisions. Your daemon and cursor act independently. Fire abilities from your core, deploy attacks exactly where you aim, blink between positions and combine skills to control the battlefield.
BUILD DEVASTATING COMBOS
Choose your loadout from 24 active abilities. Detonate explosions around your daemon, draw delayed blast lines with your cursor, deploy firewalls, escape danger and chain abilities together to wipe out entire swarms.

24 Active Abilities: Unlock new attacks, traps, movement skills and defensive tools.
Three Tech Trees: Upgrade offence, defence and utility.
8 Bosses: Face unique attacks, hazards and mechanics.
Risk and Reward: Defend data caches for extra loot and activate modifiers for greater challenges.
