Mission: ALPR

"In a world where we are always watched... One man has taken a stand."

The surveillance state has taken over. Automatic License Plate Readers (ALPR) and high-tech security cameras blanket every corner of the grid—from quiet suburban mailboxes to massive corporate monoliths.

Hop on your bike, grab your bat, and fight back for freedom in this fast-paced, retro-arcade stealth smash- 'em-up.

🕹️ Features

• Smash the Grid: Sneak, ride, and sprint through suburban neighborhoods, shopping strips, and city centers to take out every surveillance camera in sight.
• Dynamic Stealth & Evade: Watch out for sweeping spotlights and patrolling police cars. One wrong move and you're busted.
• Satirical Dystopia: Navigate a vibrant, pixelated city from suburbs to the neon-soaked skyscrapers of downtown at night.
• Pure Arcade Action: Easy to pick up, challenging to master, with instant retries and fast-paced gameplay.

Gameplay:

Explore the map and locate the ALPR cameras. Walk up to it and smash it. Each tool takes a certain number of hits or time to disable a camera. Collect the scrap metal dropped from the cameras and at the end of the level, trade it in for cash to upgrade your tools at the shop. Watch out for the patrolling cops though! Avoid the camera's light of sight too, or they'll activate a BOLO and come looking for you after you smash it!
