Bolt Swarm
Slide your cannon under a descending swarm and fire chain-lightning bolts before the enemies cross your defense line.
How to play
Hold anywhere to move your cannon to that spot and fire bolts straight up. Each hit chains lightning to up to 2 nearby enemies (4 when overcharged). Catch 3 falling sparks to overcharge the next bolt. Dodge the pink shots enemies fire down. An enemy crossing the cyan line costs a life — you have 3, and losing them all ends the run. Tap the pause icon (or press P/Escape) to pause; tap or press P/Escape/Space to resume.
Controls
- Tap / Click / Hold: move cannon to that spot and fire
- Drag: slide the cannon while holding
- Left / Right arrows or A / D: move cannon
- Space: fire
- P or Escape: pause / resume
- Tap pause icon (top-right): pause; tap anywhere to resume
Tips
- Fire under the densest clusters — chain lightning only reaches close neighbors.
- Save your overcharged bolt for when a wave is thickest.
- Aimer enemies (white darts) shoot at your position — keep moving.
- Orange armored cores take 3 hits; chain into them last.
- A breach costs a life, so clear enemies near the cyan line first.
About Bolt Swarm
Bolt Swarm is a neon arcade shooter where enemies rain down on weaving paths instead of marching in a tidy grid. Your cannon fires bolts straight up, and each hit chains lightning to nearby enemies, so lining up dense clusters is how you score big. Catch falling sparks to overcharge your next bolt and watch the chain reach even further.
