This cellular automata based puzzle game tells the story of armor-eating nanobots living on a bullet in flight. Created as a military experiment in armor-eating rounds, these nanobots have woken up early, and have plans of their own, despite understanding very little of their environment.
NOTE: The behavior of each nanobot is described by the 3x3 grid in the upper right of the nanobot's placement button. The letters in the grid indicate which nanobots the bot will generate and/or which direction it will move.
For Web: Works better in full screen.
