LAB 7

Lab 7 is in containment breach. Subject Zero is loose, and every creature it infects spreads the infection further: rabbits, rats and cats turn into zombie versions of themselves and bite the next one in line. As Dr. Apocalypse, you can't stop the outbreak, only control it. Drop stun towers whose pulses jump from zombie to zombie, throw mutation gas that infection can't pass through, release caged animals as bait, and reach the lit research terminal to upload data before the room overruns you. Every 30 seconds the zombies mutate: faster, stronger, splitting in two. Got bitten? You're infected, and your health is draining. Drink an antidote, but each one only heals a little. How long can you keep the chain reaction under control?

Roygbiv

Everyone talks about unicorns. Rainbows never get the spotlight they deserve in stories. That is about to change. A top-down roguelite shooter where you play as the rainbow itself, armed with a shotgun, fighting off a horde of disgustingly cute unicorns. The Core Mechanic: The hero's body is made of seven colored bands, and those seven bands are both your health bar and your seven power slots. You start completely gray, with only one randomly selected band painted. Every time you level up, one band is painted and gains a power, chosen from three randomly drawn abilities out of the four available for that color. Taking a hit extinguishes the innermost band: you lose its power along with it, and your best card is always the first one to go. Go four seconds without taking damage and the band is restored, together with its power. There are 28 powers, four for each color band, and seven tiers of unicorns, including a mother unicorn that splits into two when killed. At the end, you face a four-headed hydra whose mane is made of seven stolen rainbow locks. Each lock you tear away kills one head: its eyes turn into Xs and its neck collapses to the ground !

One Last Bar

Your signal bar is your health, your map, and your only way home. You strip dead infrastructure for a living. Walk out into the yard, grab whatever valuable junk you can carry, and get back to the van before your connection gives out. Everything you rely on runs on reception. FOUR BARS everything works. THREE item readouts get unreliable. You're not sure what you just grabbed. TWO your compass starts drifting. Home is no longer where it says. ONE something else joins your comms channel. ZERO the world flips. The deeper you go, the better the loot and the worse the signal. Deploy boosters to claw bars back, and stack them into towers to punch a connection into the dead zone. Bank your haul, upgrade the van, go further out. THREE PLACES TO WORK, each breaking your signal a different way. THE YARD distance is the enemy. Containers, a burning horizon, ash instead of rain. THE SUB-LEVEL distance means nothing. Line of sight is everything, and there is concrete in the way. THE ANTENNA FIELD the good ground moves. Ride the sweeps or lose the link. Then FRENZY: endless waves, a clock that resets every wave, a quota to bank, and radars that are not all on your side. Spend what you scrape between waves, because it does not follow you home. TWO THINGS ARE HUNTING YOU, FROM OPPOSITE ENDS. One feeds on bad signal. It is dormant while you are connected, wakes as you lose bars, and at one bar it is the only thing on the channel coming through clean. The other is only awake while your signal is STRONG, and it moves only while you are not looking at it. There is no part of the meter that is safe. FEATURES A signal ladder that drives everything: loot text, navigation, the monsters, the weather, and the audio mix itself Deployable booster towers that physically extend your safe range, and critters that come out of the dark to eat them Four places to work, each with its own weather, and its own way of failing you A fully voiced operator: 300+ reactive lines, and she is not always the one talking Hardcore mode where one hit ends the run and the store turns on you Leaderboards, achievements, and cloud saves that follow you across devices Full controller support Comfort settings on by default: no screen shake, no camera roll, no blur No signal. No extraction.

As a newly appointed operator, your primary directive is to maintain the stability of the ECHO_DECODER main node. Due to the permanent degradation of this terminal's graphical interface, you must rely entirely on the manual override protocol. Listen closely to the intercepted audio packets—consisting of short pulses and heavy low-frequency drones—and calibrate the frequency via physical switches within the allotted time. This is a rigid, unforgiving corporate procedure. Random guesswork is strictly prohibited. [ OPERATOR PROTOCOL ] Audio-Only Decryption: Discard visual dependency. You must learn to isolate [ ▬ LONG ] and [ ● SHORT ] signals amidst the static. Strict Execution Sequence: The system has zero tolerance for error. Do NOT press the [ EXECUTE ] button until all parameter switches are locked. Premature submission or mindless testing will trigger a severe system backfire. Operator Reference: If you cannot memorize the base frequencies, refer to cheat_sheet.txt on your virtual desktop. It is the only asset left by your predecessor. Escalating Interference: As you delve deeper into the nodes, audio corruption will spike exponentially. Maintain focus. [ SYSTEM DISCLAIMER ] DataCorp is not liable for auditory hallucinations, cognitive dissonance, or the feeling of "being watched" during calibration.

DEAD YARD

Six levels, each with a bigger house, tougher zombies and a much bigger price tag. FEATURES Six levels of escalating hordes, each with its own house Five zombie types, from shamblers to armoured brutes Seven tower levels and nine rentable weapons Weekly Top-100 richest-player leaderboard Plays on desktop and mobile No download, no login, no game over
