'The Swarm is Coming' is a retro-style action game set on Proxima Moon Alpha. Players assume the role of Bremner, an engineer at the Moon Base, tasked with repairing equipment and managing resources. The game is divided into four missions, each requiring strategic use of the 'Materializer-ZX' for teleportation and resource management.

The storyline revolves around the discovery of Proximium, a rare element capable of distorting the space-time continuum. As Bremner, players must navigate through various challenges, using the MAT-ZX to request supplies and manage special items like decoys and explosives. The game's HUD provides crucial information, including health status and mission time.

Weapons play a significant role, with the PMC-01 personal weapon being the primary tool for defense. Players can upgrade their weapons based on their rank, utilizing items like the Ion Grenade Launcher and Lightpulse. These upgrades are essential for overcoming the obstacles presented in each mission.

The game offers different difficulty settings, impacting enemy behavior and mission ratings. Successfully completing missions unlocks access codes for subsequent levels, encouraging replayability. The retro graphics and immersive storyline provide a nostalgic experience for fans of classic platformers.

aGGreSSor: Были советские буклеты проектов приусадебных домов, глянцевые листики с хорошей полиграфией, и вот там я видел такие Минидомики - их предлагалось на 6 сотках строить, но народ больше всё-таки сараи строил))
aGGreSSor: Рисуйте, рисуйте простое и сложное.
Рисуйте, рисуйте не ради молвы.
Рисуйте, рисуйте, как вы только можете.
Рисуйте, рисуйте, как видите вы...
