Power Shift Arena

Power Shift Arena strips a shooter down to its one real decision: which way is your core facing right now. You never pull a trigger - the pulses fire on their own, constantly, so the entire game is about rotating fast enough that the direction you need is already the direction you're pointing when an enemy arrives. Threats close in from every side of the neon arena at once, which makes standing still and reacting a losing habit fast.

Easy, Medium and Hard change more than enemy health - the wave speed climbs too, so Hard turns rotation into something closer to reflex than strategy. Survival time is the only score that matters, and it punishes hesitation more than bad aim.

How to play

Rotate your core to point its pulses at wherever enemies are approaching from - you don't need to aim or fire manually, only turn to face the threat before it reaches you. Pick Easy, Medium or Hard before starting; harder modes send waves in faster, so rotate earlier than feels necessary. Watch the whole arena rather than one side, since a gap in your rotation is exactly where the next hit comes from.

Controls

Move the mouse, or use the Left and Right Arrow Keys, to rotate the core's direction - pulses fire automatically once you're facing a threat. On mobile, drag around the core to rotate it.
