Node Blaster: Core Breach

One drone. Five corrupted systems. Breach the core.

NODE BLASTER: CORE BREACH is a side-scrolling digital combat prototype built around precise movement, automatic targeting, limited Pulse blasts, and defensive Dash timing. Destroy linked defenses, break through firewalls, defeat five guardians, and choose upgrades that shape your run. Defeat the Core Warden, then extract or continue into harder circuits.

CONTROLS
• Move: WASD or arrow keys
• Pulse: Space or Z
• Dash/shield: Shift or X
• Pause: Esc or P
• Touch: onscreen thumbstick, Pulse and Dash controls

Your primary weapon fires automatically. Positioning and a clear line of sight matter. Standard and Assist modes are available. Progress saves at zone boundaries and upgrade decisions.
