GET AWAY!  

A Rusty Circuits Production  

Get Away! is a high-octane, top-down survival bullet hell that tests your reflexes, your aim, and your greed.  
Trapped in a glowing retro-arcade nightmare, you must pilot your Gyro-Drone through an endless, escalating swarm of cybernetic hornets. The screen will fill with neon lasers, but you have the tools to survive: the Micro-Dive, evasive dashes, devastating power-ups, and pure skill. Will you play it safe, or will you chase the ultimate high score and face the true rulers of the grid?  
  
How to Play  

Your objective is simple: Survive, dominate the bosses, and claim the High Score.  
Destroy the Neon Hornet swarm to rack up points and collect the glowing loot they leave behind. But beware the double-edged sword of success: the higher your score climbs, the faster the swarm spawns!  
As you reach specific point thresholds, the swarm will increase for massive invasion. Defeat them to trigger a massive Loot Explosion, but be warned, every victory pushes you closer to the absolute chaos of the endgame.

Power-Up Database  

When you destroy an enemy, they have a chance to drop a temporary power-up. Grab them before they fade away! Note: Defeating a boss triggers a guaranteed Loot Explosion of all 5 power-ups.  
 
HEAL: Green, System Repair: Restores one heart to your ship.  
MULT: Yellow, Score Boost: Adds +1 to your point multiplier. Warning: Faster scores trigger faster enemy spawns!  
SHIELD: Blue, Tactical Barrier: Grants 2.5 seconds of pure invincibility. Perfect for ramming bosses!  
CANNON: Pink, Weapon Upgrade: Adds an extra barrel to your ship. Stacks infinitely for a wide spread!  
FIRE RATE: Orange, Overclock: Increases how fast you shoot. Stack these to create a solid wall of lasers.  
   
Advanced Survival Tactics: 

Your Dash gives you a split-second of Invincibility (I-frames). You can dash directly through enemy bullets. Even better, any enemy you dash through while blurred is instantly destroyed!  
The Micro-Drive, Pressing E (or the Evade button) shrinks your drone down for 3 seconds. Use this to dodge your way through impossible bullet patterns.  
The "Meat Shield" Threat, The late-game Demon Lord uses a Gravity Well to pull the entire swarm around his body. You must blast a hole through his living armor to deal damage to the core.  
Red Alert, Keep an eye on the edges of your screen. If they start glowing red, you are down to your final heart. Stop playing aggressively and hunt for a Green Heal!
