Ch5: Indestructorb Idle

You control a small ship, or sometimes just a turret, positioned at the bottom of the screen. Your target is a large, immobile alien mothership that dominates the upper portion. The moment-to-moment play involves holding down a key, likely 'A', to fire a constant stream of projectiles upward. Your clicks are reserved for the menu, where you spend the money earned from dealing damage to purchase upgrades. These upgrades typically include new weapons and automated drones that fire alongside you, creating a busier screen as your damage output grows. The pacing is incremental, focused on watching numbers climb as you chip away at the massive UFO's health bar. It feels like a test of patience, watching your automated arsenal slowly whittle down a static, overwhelming target.
