Moltron

MOLTRON is a fast, neon light-cycle battler. You pilot a machine that leaves a glowing wall behind it — crash into any trail, wall, or rival and you're out. The last one riding wins.

It's twitch survival plus a bit of strategy: cut people off, bait them into dead ends, and grab power-ups to swing a round — homing-ish missiles, EMP pulses, proximity bombs, shields, ghost/phase to slip through walls, a speed dash, and "recall" to wipe your own trail.Modes

• VS AI — duel the machine intelligence at Rookie / Rival / MOLTRON difficulty.
• Local P1 vs P2 — two players, one keyboard.
• Online Match — jump into a room and fight real people.
• Solo Run — endless survival; chase a high score.

Progress & style Every round earns XP toward a career rank (Scrap → Circuit → Voltage → Overdrive → MOLTRON → Singularity), unlocking new pilots and a deep cosmetic system — ship colors (Spectroscopy), animated shimmers, and bolt-on augments.

Deterministic engine, seeded RNG, instant restarts. Built for the browser, plays on desktop and mobile.
