The game uses a fixed-perspective tube shooter format where the player moves around the rim of geometric webs and fires inward at approaching enemies. Core actions include movement, rapid fire, powerful super shots, and emergency jumps to escape danger. Each level has a different web shape, and enemies can crawl along lanes, leap outward, or fire back. Progression is level based, with points, bonus opportunities, and collectible power-ups that grant shields, stronger weapons, AI helpers, and other advantages as the pace intensifies.

Claw

The player's claw-shaped shooter that races along the edge of the web and destroys incoming enemies.

Prioritize enemies that are closest to reaching the rim, since they pose the most immediate threat. Save super shots for dense waves or recovery situations instead of spending them too early. Learn the shape of each web so you can position yourself for efficient interceptions. Shields and AI support are especially valuable, so grab those power-ups when it is safe. As the game speeds up, controlled movement matters more than constant repositioning.
