A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away...
Just kidding
But imagine yourself standing in magnet boots on top of the spaceship, overlooking a galaxy, equipped with 2 energysabers with built-in rail-guns, hearing this alien synth sound alarming you about the drones coming up in different shapes and styles. Be the masta of your sabers and your people. Protect yourself and protect them.
You will appear on an alien spaceship with two energysabers in your hands in deep space somewhere in a faraway galaxy. You can use your energysabers as sabers, shields, or even rail-guns to fight with incoming flying and crawling drones. The drones are coming in waves and you will lose some health every time a drone hits you. The health is restored after each completed wave. In order to complete a wave you need to kill all the drones in it, and each subsequent wave has an increased number of drones. Every drone in a new wave becomes more and more tricky to kill: faster, closer to appear, harder to hit. They can also carry some hidden drones inside and split when you expect that the least.
