System Breach

A retro raycaster shooter in the spirit of the early-90s classics, made by Edu Lázaro. Breach the Kenodo defense grid sector by sector, clear every hostile process and take down the root process that guards each third sector.

Every sector is generated on the fly, so no two runs are the same, and the pressure keeps rising: enemies fire faster, their shots fly quicker and new kinds of hostiles join in. Reach sector 12 and destroy the kernel to breach the system, then keep going in endless mode to see how long you last.

Weapons

• PULSE: fast automatic energy rifle, cheap on energy.
• SCATTER: close-range blast of seven pellets, unlocked in sector 2.
• RAIL: charged beam that pierces every enemy in its line, unlocked in sector 4.

Run out of energy and you fight with your fists

Hostiles

• Drones: hover towards you and fire energy bolts.
• Skitters: small and fast, they explode when they reach you.
• Sentinels: heavy armoured turrets that fire in bursts of three.
• Core: the root process. A boss every third sector, with ring attacks and skitter spawns.
• Kernel: the final boss in sector 12, tougher and angrier than any core.
