The year is 2027, and Earth is mostly uninhabitable. Humanity has retreated to a giant bubble.
We gave up on space exploration and defunded the Space Force. Our only defenses are a handful of turrets in case the mutant whales attack again.
Alas, space exploration did not give up on us, and now we're being invaded by an alien armada that wants to literally burst our bubble. It's up to you to save us from this bullshit!
Each turret can have one of three different firing patterns and one of three different types of plasma.
When a turret is receiving a complete signal (meaning both a plasma type and firing pattern are connected), it's time for those alien bastards to pay!
But these damn dirty extraterrestrials are crafty.
Different aliens are susceptible to some plasma colors, and resistant to others.
With no plasma color chosen, the turrets will still fire, but their bullets will be pale, limp, and flaccid.
With the right plasma types chosen and a strategic firing pattern, the aliens will have no choice but to kneel before you and cower as your girthy turrets spray ropey, colorful jets of freedom.
How to Play:
--- * Click a fire button (on the right) to select a firing pattern.
* Click a turret (center, bottom) to connect the cable, enabling cannon fire.
* Click the plasma buttons (on the left) and connect them to the turrets to change the bullet type.
* Try to survive until the final boss appears.
* Behold the boss's glory, then destroy it!

I had a pretty good time with this game! It looks good, sounds good, plays good, and is pretty silly with its jokes. I managed to beat it on the first attempt, apparently without losing any cities. Either the strategy clicked on how to move signals around, or the cannons doing most of the work for me, worked out. Another weekend well spent, great work!
It looks beautifully and the sound is great. Funny lore :D . Gameplay wise it felt like I didn't really needed to do anything, I just connnected the 3 middle turrets, watched and won.
I like how behind the silly jokes it actually touches the really real topic of AI water consumption. Good work slaving the weekend away you guys, for what its worth, I think it's a pretty nifty little game c:
Solid game, well executed. The graphics and audio were well done and complemented the gameplay well. I didn't find that I had to optimize the firing patterns much, but the mechanic of swapping wires around was a solid one. Overall a fun game, well done!
This game is seriously impressive! I’m obsessed with those worm-like signal lines—they’re like the heart of this wild, spiral journey and fit the theme perfectly. The art style is such a cool mix of Gen-Z aesthetics, disco vibes, and a touch of humor!
Really enjoyed it. There was a lot more depth to the gameplay then I was expecting. Changing up the firing types to be in different spots really helped in some of the sections.
