About CoreBreaker: Desktop Swarm
CoreBreaker: Desktop Swarm is a minimalist idle incremental brick-breaker game built to live on your desktop. Hostile robots are flooding the system. Wave after wave march down the corridor toward you. Your arsenal of bouncing Cores is all that stands between order and collapse. You build the defense. Then you watch it work. Play Your Way: Corner or Full-Screen Build it. Deploy it. Walk away. Upgrade your skill tree, unlock new Core types, then let CoreBreaker handle the rest. Run it in a corner of your screen while you work, browse, or do anything else. It plays itself. You just make it stronger. Or take full control. Switch to full screen any time. Aim your Cores manually, react to boss waves, push further than idle mode can take you. Same build, same upgrades, completely different energy. Your arsenal never stops growing. Seven Core types. Each with its own upgrade tree. Fire that spreads and explodes. Ice that freezes entire formations. Lightning that chains across six enemies at once. Laser that wipes whole rows in a single shot. Every upgrade changes how the game plays, not just how hard it hits. The waves never stop either. Infinite enemies. Infinite scaling. Boss every fifth wave. When you die, you carry your multipliers into the next run and go further than before. There is no finish line. There is only further.
