E.R.U. (Energy Retrieval Unit) is a top-down reverse bullet-hell where you need to absorb the bullets and also keep enemies alive as long as you possible before destroying them.

The last terraformer on Mars is threatened by the Corpobots. Originally built to generate energy for the terraformer, they've been corrupted and they're ready to explode at any moment.

You play as E.R.U., an Energy Retrieval Unit sent to ensure the terraformer's survival. You must collect the energy generated by the Corpobots and destroy them before they self-destruct and take the terraformer down with them.

Try to survive and achieve the highest score you can reach. See if you can beat the dev's highscore of 99540.

a little bit confusing on first runs, but actually quite entertaining.

Got 122768 on my first run!
