SYSTEM MODULES

Core Features

Eight-target scanning

Sweep across as many as eight targets, then release a synchronized volley for up to an 8× score multiplier.

Five evolution forms

Build power to evolve SIGNAL through five increasingly powerful forms. Taking damage can force SIGNAL to devolve.

Weaponized viruses

Collect and deploy specialized programs including Pulse, Unlimited, and Trace Worm.

Upgrade Terminal

Spend recovered Bytes on permanent tier upgrades that improve virus speed, duration, behavior, and data collection.

Ten subsystems per frequency

Decrypt ten evolving subsystems before confronting each frequency’s central defense.

Multi-phase bosses

Destroy defensive systems, expose vulnerable yellow cores, and attack before the defenses reconstruct themselves.

Multiple game modes

Play the campaign in Normal or Chill mode, then pursue high scores through Score Attack and Boss Attack.

Touch-first controls

Designed for landscape play on Android phones and tablets, with mouse and controller support where available.

NETWORK MAP

Descend Through the Network

Each frequency contains ten subsystems. Scan hostile programs, break encrypted gates, collect Bytes, install upgrades, and defeat the boss controlling the frequency.

Environments and threats become more advanced as SIGNAL pushes deeper into the system. An unknown frequency may exist beyond the documented network.

PAYLOAD BAY

Deploy Viruses

Pulse

Deploys an autonomous firing program that attacks available targets.

Unlimited

Temporarily removes the normal eight-target Scan Buffer limit.

Trace Worm

Attacks every valid target currently visible on the screen.

Upgrade Terminal

Recover Bytes during missions and spend them between frequencies. Upgrade prices increase by tier, from 400 Bytes for Tier 1 to 2 KB for Tier 5.
