I ask you not to look at the simple interface and general simplicity - give yourself a couple of minutes to master the mechanics and the game will catch you
(it depends on whether the game designer lets me go or not!)

The game has a fairly high complexity with its step-by-step nature, so here are the instructions to guide you:

[Movement]

You control the blue circle using arrows and can only move in 4 directions by one cell at a time. Unlike the enemies, you can wrap around the borders to escape. In addition, you have an ultimate ability to teleport to a nearby location (by pressing Space and moving to the desired location) without consuming your move (but consuming the ability)

[Attacks]

You do not control your attacks! Instead, the game does it for you, so these actions are inevitable! You can see your attacks on the right indicated by a small grid with the player as a blue circle and red crosses as attack locations. Below the pattern there is a cooldown indicator that shows the next time you will perform this attack.

However, you have only one attack slot at the start of the game, but you can unlock others by collecting enough points. The required number is shown inside of the lock

[Enemies]

Enemies are trying to kill you, and you will die from just touching them! The enemies spawn in the corners of the arena. Right before they spawn, a red mark is shown to indicate an enemy. Over time (or, rather, as you get higher score) more difficult enemies will spawn! Kill the enemies with your inevitable attacks

[Upgrades]

Once you reach a new level (indicated on the left), you will get an opportunity to select an upgrade among three random ones. Select the desired upgrade with arrows and confirm with Enter
