Objective[edit]

Fly the Klå Mk.10 and avoid 'n destroy Notyous while collecting pickups.

All edges of the hexagonal arena are connected to its opposite like portals, making for a puzzlingly dangerous playing field that might take some experience to wrap your head around. The goal is to survive as long as possible or to eject back to the lobby when the chaos becomes insurfable. In this manner an immense score can be accumulated. If your score surpasses the highest, "uploading" your pilot will put him or her on a pedestal as long as this new highest score remains unbeaten.

WARNING: The aforementioned uploading process could be described as gory. Avoid activating the splatterpillar in the vicinity of weak stomachs.
