Inside the Glacier Update

Major System Overhaul of Net.Attack()'s tactical programming tools:

  • Node Sets reorganize abilities into clearer, more strategic clusters.
  • Modifications, run-defining super-upgrades, unlock devastating algorithm builds.
  • New enemy threats detected:
    • Warden – A relentless enforcer that locks down waves with suffocating pressure. Wardens don't give you space, they take it.
    • Artillery – A shock-impact mini-boss that bombards the arena with precision strikes. Hesitation = Deletion.
    • Surfer – A swarm-class predator triggered when all remaining ByteCoins convert into pursuit units. They flood the field instantly and they run you down.

These aren't just new enemies, they're new failure conditions. Adapt or get overwritten.

Three New Characters Join the Fight

Each character rewrites the battlefield with unique attack architectures:

  • 7UR7ING – Armored. Methodical. Deploys modular Heat Link towers channeling thermal energy into brutal suppression zones. Bend enemy paths to your will – then incinerate them.
  • M4RRY – A relentless shark-inspired brawler built for close-quarters brutality. Every strike builds strength until Rage Mode erupts, igniting a speed-and-damage surge turning aggression into annihilation.
  • GU$$ – Serpentine tactician. Collect Observers to extend your shifting body, increasing reach, control and strike potential while weaving through enemy formations. Evolve mid-run and dominate late-game arenas.
