Our take on Swarmlake

The likely bounce point is managing countless enemies on screen while using jumps and the beam to gain height. Players who find that combination too demanding may hit a wall before the high-score chase becomes their focus.

What is Swarmlake?

Swarmlake is a fast-paced first-person shooter focused on fighting a record-breaking swarm.

Players use an overpowered weapon and its chargeable beam to attack. Jumping off enemies and using the beam as a springboard provide ways to launch upward, while countless enemies appear on screen at once. The game has a high skill ceiling and centers on chasing high scores. An online leaderboard and replays support that score-focused play.
