Command an army of predators to hunt down swarms of boids, harvesting their remains to fuel incremental upgrades. Each cycle generates resources that strengthen your creatures, creating a compounding loop of growth and destruction. Strategy-light players seeking a meditative automation experience will appreciate watching their enhanced predators methodically consume increasingly large swarms.

If you like "watch my guys win more with win more upgrades" type of incremental games, this will scratch that itch.

The predators (your bots) kinda suck at first.
Watching them go from weak and aimless, to efficient killers that often out run, or box in their prey is fun, it also adds some depth to the upgrades, as you can visually see them preform better.

Game is cheap, feels fun and scratches that upgrade itch, give it a try.
