Draft Glyphs. Shatter to bank, Converge to begin again.

Coreshatter is a chill idle tower defense roguelite built for the long game. Lay out a defense, read the waves crashing against your Core, and tune a build with genuine depth. Then prestige and push deeper. It keeps playing while you are away and pays out when you return, so a quick check-in and a long strategy session both feel good.

THE CORE LOOP
- DEFEND: Enemies stream across the Grid toward your Core. Your Glyphs fire on their own while you read the fight and steer the run.
- DRAFT: Every run deals a fresh roguelite hand. Choose Glyphs and Chips, chase synergies, and adapt to each wave.
- SHATTER: Bank the run's spoils and lock in your gains.
- CONVERGE: Prestige to reset with permanent power and open deeper systems each time.

DRAFT AND BUILD
- Socket Glyphs and Chips into a board loadout where placement changes everything.
- Find synergies across offense, defense, and economy pieces.
- Answer wave modifiers that reward a flexible, adaptable build.
- Auto-arrange your board, or hand-place every piece for full control.

WAVES THAT TEST YOUR BUILD
- Face a roster of distinct foes, from swarming Motes and splitting Splitters to shielded bruisers and Corruption bosses that demand an answer.
- Each wave can shift the rules, so the run that beats one seed may stumble on the next.
- Endless escalation rewards builds that scale.

DEEP PROGRESSION
- Invest Scrap, Data, and Flux across the Foundry, Mainframe, and Lattice upgrade trees.
- Build a network of up to 8 linked Cores, each with its own feel and bonuses.
- Collect and master Glyphs in the Codex and chart your growth in the Constellation.
- Convergence prestige compounds your power run after run.

THE ENDGAME OPENS UP
- Complete the Axiom tree to unlock the Trove, then hunt, forge, and equip Vestiges: collectible relics, each with a passive that reshapes a run.
- Deep Hunts: push a run past wave 100 to recover a Vestige's Fragments and forge it toward Apex.
- Research: a permanent Core upgrade tree.
- Gambit: stake earned Axioms on a live run, hold past the floor and Shatter for a bigger payout, or breach and lose the stake.

RANKED LADDERS
- Take it online with a new competitive endgame: climb a daily ELO ladder from Bronze to Grandmaster.
- Aegis Trials hands every pilot the same curated daily kit, so your rank comes down to pure skill.
- The Ascendant Ladder pits the build you have forged against the whole field.
- A fresh shared challenge every day, six-week seasons, and a live Standings board you can climb. Rewards are cosmetic.

IN-RUN AGENCY
- Call Reinforcements when the pressure spikes: REPAIR to patch your Core, HOLD THE LINE to dig in.
- Make the clutch draft pick that turns a losing run around.
- Light, deliberate decisions you make in a tap.

IDLE AND OFFLINE
- Offline progress that matches live play, so time away is never wasted.
- Auto-Run keeps earning in the background while you plan your next build.
- Made for a few minutes a day or a long tuning session, your call.

BUILT TO PLAY YOUR WAY
- Colorblind-safe coding that reads by shape and label as well as hue.
- Reduced-motion support, scalable text, and a high-contrast interface.
- A calm, flat interface with the light and motion saved for the arena where the action lives.

Free to play.
