A downloadable game for Windows

A space shoot 'em up made for EpicMegaJam 2021! This was my first game jam and I had 2 months of experience learning Unreal Engine with no prior game dev experience (aside from playing around with XNA in college 10 years ago). I had a blast making this and I hope you enjoy it as well!


Play as a usb flash drive tearing down the information superhighway while avoiding unwanted files. Be careful not to rely on your specials too much or the CPU might just lock up! Can you make it 25 waves and defeat the boss before you run out of space?
