This is an evasive action game that is a little different from shooters and bullet hells. Watch the signs and avoid the attacks! [Story] Unique monsters had suddenly appeared all over the world. Mankind was helpless before their power which were beyond human understanding. The hero, who could foresee their attacks, received an order. — Go to the designated parts of the world and slay the enemies. — [How to Play] Easy to operate, just swipe! Always attack forward automatically. Watch for the signs, evade the attacks, and make some damage in between! Once you get used to it, you can clear the game with no damage.

About

Substrate Entity

Features
Read full description

You are a charge running an etched plate. The trace splits under you, and some of the branches it offers are already finished. Nothing marks them. You read ahead, you pick a side, you keep moving. Press the left or the right of the glass. That is the whole game. SEVEN STRATA Each one runs faster and darker than the one above it. When the colour turns, the tempo turns with it. CHARGE Every row costs you. The bright pads pay it back and stack your multiplier. The branch that keeps you alive and the branch that keeps you fed are rarely the same branch. NO ADS No timers, no energy, no currency, no in-app purchases, no account. It runs entirely on your phone. Portrait, one thumb. Sound, haptics and motion each turn off. More from Dro1d Labs: Pixel Pigeon for the stubborn life of a city bird, and War Pigeon for tactical stealth after dark.
