Two hearts, one forest

Your Hive hums at the edge of the wood; the magenta Heart bleeds raiders at the far side. Between them float Lumen pods — the only currency this world knows. Harvest it, grow your swarm, and decide when to fight and when to raid.

How to play

Goal

Send drones to a Lumen pod to gather. Delivered Lumen is your score and your money. Spend it on drones, march your swarm onto the Heart and win. Defend your Hive — if it falls, you lose.

Mouse & keyboard

Left-drag box-select · Left-click pick a drone · Right-click a pod to gather, a foe to attack, the ground to move · WASD/arrows pan the camera · Q/E or wheel zoom · N hatch a drone · Space focus Hive.

Touch

Drag to pan the world, tap a drone to select it, flip the Order switch and tap where you want drones to go (pod = gather, raider = attack). Use the on-screen pad and Hatch button.
