Basic
You automatically move forward.
You stop each time you attack.
Kill as many foes (lab security and security drones) as much as you can.
Earn as many points as you can by killing enemies.
Jump to reach flying enemies or avoid bullets from ground-based foes.
Collect power ups and weapons to help you deal with enemies.
Use keys to unlock new sections of the lab.
You need 3 keys to unlock a new section.
Each new section of lab has a slight change in difficulty.
Travel as far as you can.
Hit points
Hit points allow you to survive the attacks made by the lab security staff.
You only have a limited number of hit points.
Each time you get hit or even make contact with an enemy, you lose hit points.
If you lose all your hit points, it’s game over.
Equipment
There are several weapons strewn across the game.
Grab these weapons to equip them.
Their effects can vary. Some fire bullets or energy blasts. Others fire an extendable punching glove.
Power-ups
Power ups come in the form of vials.
Green vials: Restores your hit points
Purple vials: Makes you walk and fire faster
Red vials: Instantly kills all visible foes
Scoring
Your score is based on the number of green vials you collect plus the distance you traveled.
Strategy
Unlike in other similar run and gun games, jumping has a tactical bonus.
Jump or double jump to dodge enemy fire.
If they’re too close, you can also use jumps to evade you foes rather than waste your hit points.
Don’t expect to do much double jumping, though, until in later levels.
Most of your jumps in the early levels will be to seize keys and power up vials.
You still need to draw most of your attention to shooting things on the ground.
As you have infinite ammo, see if you can shoot several rounds at a time, even in the absence of visible enemies.
The enemies that are far back will still be shot, as they’re spawned offscreen.
This will help you keep your path clear by shooting most enemies out of the way.
Any enemies that survive will be dealt with much faster.
Target Audience
The game is suited for gamers who like running games.
This game has no adult themed content.
