You get to play as a disgruntled waste collector, and you must transform your humble space garbage truck into a powerful spaceship by salvaging debris from your fallen enemies. You’re able to control your ship’s movements via the left joystick and fire its weapons in any direction with the right. Your ship won’t be easy to control at first or have that much firepower, but you can upgrade it after every round using collected debris. Upgrades can be applied by dragging and dropping new pieces into place, allowing you to completely reshape your ship.

You can take direct aim at each shark, or you can try to cause a total collapse by taking out weak points in the structure.
