Opis
An unforgiving retro-styled bullet-hell endurance game. A chance to play with an abandoned and mouldering national defense project. (Fictional, of course. It's just a diversion, really.)
Jak grać
Arrows or WASD to move; space to shoot; escape to pause; and mouse the menus (though the pause and lost probe menus also accept movement keys and enter/return).

For the next update:
- Music
- Stimulating visual anomalies
- A smaller hit-box
- A revised difficulty-ramping system
Comments and suggestions are, as always, of unfathomable value.

Aren't Bullet Hells faster paced?

After about an hour of playing I had all upgrades maxed [except thrusters that were at 6 each], but then during a hard game the enemies randomly slowly stopped coming, then stopped all together. I had to refresh page to play again, but all upgrades were gone.

ASTROCAT: Excellent work. Judging from your second comment, the issues are quite probably in the way I've handled the difficulty ramp and/or weighted probabilities, both of which are under revision. Thanks for noting the details. DANTE: Adopting smaller hit-box is a very sensible suggestion, particularly given the average score on easy. I'll shrink it in time for the coming update.

CaptainSpaulding: You're on the right track. Status Update is intended as an epilogue to a more ambitious shooter, one that should have a bit of a story arc. As such, Status Update probably won't have any plot development itself, but I would like to make evidence of its past clearer. In concept, the program has been discontinued. A screen for the lingering memos is a feature I very much want to add, but it probably won't make it into the next update.
