Rewind Oasis

The last oasis is falling silent. Hold it together.
You are the Keeper, a small repair ship wired into the Heart: the generator that once brought water up from under the dunes. Wave after wave, the tenders that used to care for the oasis come to strip it for parts.
Shoot them down, then duck away to hammer repairs into place. Every generator you bring back online powers up your ship, but the more you lean on them, the more there is to protect.
Each wave you survive unlocks a memory, told backward: from the oasis's quiet end to the hopeful day it began.
Features
- Fight and fix. Twin-stick shooting mixed with hands-on repair. You can't shoot while you repair, so every repair is a gamble.
- Power the grid. Online generators boost your ship's damage and fire rate. Lean on them for a huge payoff, as long as the Heart holds.
- Sing the Repair Song. Late in the campaign the Keeper remembers an old song that mends every generator at once, brings half-repaired ones straight back online and shakes robots loose.
- Build your Keeper. Pick one of three upgrades after every wave: ship power, repair skills or generator upgrades.
- Six kinds of tenders, each with a past to uncover, and the Foreman, the cracked control core behind it all.
- A story told in reverse across a 12-wave campaign, then an Endless mode to see how long the Heart can hold.
- Race the clock. An on-screen timer tracks every run, and your fastest campaign and best Endless wave are saved.
- Play anywhere. Mouse and keyboard, gamepad, or touch in a mobile browser.
