Welcome to Sector 4-B: The Incinerator Chamber.

You are ZETA-9, a rogue Next-Gen Artificial Intelligence trapped inside a glowing energy nucleus (The Core). Corporate scientists have marked you for deletion, and your only path to survival is to escape through the facility's mechanical waste chute.

However, the automated security grid has detected your breach! Thousands of defense drones are flooding the sector to eliminate you.

 CORE MECHANIC: GETTING OUT OF HAND!

Your energy nucleus emits a highly volatile magnetic field due to short-circuiting. Every time you destroy a security drone, their mechanical scraps and components automatically fly and ATTACH directly to your 3D body!

• The Upside: You inherit their operational weaponry completely for free (Lasers, Gatling Guns, Rocket Thrusters) which fire automatically.
• The Downside: The more scrap you collect, the larger and heavier you become. Your robot gains insane physical mass, severe inertia, and heavy steering imbalances! The massive recoil from a Gatling module attached to your left flank will forcefully push and rotate your robot completely out of direct control!

THE STRATEGY: THE PURGE BUTTON

When the chaos peaks, the handling becomes impossible, and you find yourself trapped by incoming hazards, hit the SPACEBAR!

Your system will execute an Emergency Eject/Purge, detonating all attached debris outward in a massive 3D radial particle explosion. This clears the screen and restores your core back to its nimble, fast-moving state. But beware... you lose all automatic firepower and shields in the process!

 HOW TO PLAY (CONTROLS)

• WASD / Arrow Keys: Move the Robot Core (Agile when small, highly sluggish and drifted when heavy).
• SPACEBAR: PURGE SYSTEM (Detonate all attached components to regain movement control).
