P-3 Biotic

P-3 Biotic is a twin-stick shooter in which you pilot a nano-ship, the MK4s, inside a petri dish. You defend the Nucleus, an entity growing at the dish’s center, from hordes of invading bacteria. If the Nucleus dies, the game is over.

You switch between defending the Nucleus and attacking the bacteria. Energy dropped by defeated bacteria can power up the Nucleus, but it is defenceless while you are away. You can also use its stored energy to over-power your weapons, turn your ship into a projectile or unleash a devastating area-of-effect shockwave, balancing these abilities against the risk of leaving the Nucleus vulnerable.
