Robotic Jomon parasites have laid siege to the reactor that powers Muroya City in an attempt to siphon off power for themselves. In the chaos, they destroyed the regulator that keeps the core temperature in check. As a lowly drone tasked with maintaining the reactor, can you hold off the invading hoard with your tiny blaster while also keeping the reactor's temperature in check?

How to Play:

• Use the mouse to guide the drone and avoid red Jomon bullets
• Hold the left mouse button to fire
• Watch the temperature gauge on the lower right-hand side! If it gets too hot or too cold, the reactor will start to die. If it's health reaches 0, you lose!
• Click the arrows at the bottom of the screen to switch which direction the temperature is moving (but it will cost you five points)
• The hotter it gets, the faster enemies will spawn and the faster their bullets will travel, but your blaster will also grow more powerful
• As it gets colder, enemies will spawn slower, and their bullets will travel slower, but your blaster will grow weaker
