LEVEL 01 / THE HATCHERY

HUNT THE HIVE.

The Hatchery's prey try to escape your growing swarm. At evolution 2, face the Burrow Stalker and its five-tile Burrow Dash; at evolution 6, avoid the Tunnel Weaver's 15-second webs. Each miniboss takes two captures to defeat. A cracked-stone ability meter fills in weathered ochre over 10 seconds.

LOADING RANKED SCORES...

Scores are replayed by the server against a seeded run. This verifies game rules, not human input. Public profile handles are user-supplied until a shared-site identity bridge is available.

CAPTURE MOVING PREY

Trap enemies against your living body for 3 energy each. Smart prey keep moving to escape.

RARE BROOD

Glowing orbs appear much less often, granting 1 energy and a new segment.

EVOLVE TO SURVIVE

Every 5 energy opens a WUBRG mutation draft. Red doubles score, not evolution energy.

DEVELOPMENT STATUSALPHA 0.4.1 / CALMER PLAYER PACE

Trap the Burrow Stalker and Tunnel Weaver in two phases, survive their special abilities and earn evolution energy. The pixel-art charge ring reveals when an ability is ready. Your swarm now moves about 10% slower, giving you more time to plan every turn.
