⚙️ ABOUT THIS GAME

🩸 HOW LONG BEFORE THE SYSTEM CRASHES?

SYSTEMCRASH92 is a side-scrolling survival roguelite. Your weapon fires on its own at whatever is closest — your job is to read the screen, move, dash through the swarm and decide what you take with you. Runs are short, loud, and never the same twice.

🌀 REALITY SHIFT

One button, and the side-scrolling plane opens up. The world turns into a hologram, the camera swings around behind you, and you move freely in full 3D inside a procedural dome — same run, same enemies, same waves, no loading screen. And the enemies notice: they chase, dodge and circle you in three dimensions too. Every activation rolls a different visual signature — cyan and magenta cyber, solar amber, acid-green alien, matrix lime, crimson. Shift back and you land on the exact spot you left.

🔩 EVERY RUN ROLLS ITS OWN RULES

Before the first enemy spawns, the run decides what it wants to be: an archetype that reshapes it — floods of swarms, elite hunts, boss sieges, monothematic anomalies — a mutator that bends the economy or the tempo, and an optional contract that pays in crafting materials.

📈 THE THREAT SCALES TO YOU

Difficulty is not a clock. Your Threat Level comes from your own progression: the higher you climb, the tougher every enemy spawns and the earlier the wave curve starts — and the more XP, gold and materials everything drops. Coming back stronger means coming back to a harder system, and being paid for it.

🤖 METALLIC ALLIES AND CRAFTING

Gather minerals to craft 20 weapons, each with its own damage, fire rate and mana cost, and 12 metallic allies that orbit you and fight on their own with genuinely distinct mechanics. Seven tiers of mutated enemy each guard a specific mineral, so when you need one you go hunt it down instead of waiting on a random chest.

🧠 PROTOCOLS

A permanent tree of 18 nodes paid in materials, with three keystones that change how the run plays: your auto-attack chains to a second target, your dash shockwave shoves everything it touches, and a second ally orbits in opposite phase.

👹 BOSSES DON'T WAIT FOR YOU

No portal, no invitation. An alarm goes off, radial scans ping the exact ground where it will land, and seconds later something enormous is standing there.
