About this gameFull description from Steam
30 years ago a logo started bouncing. Now it must learn how to fight! DVD Screensaver 2 is a survivors style auto-battler homage to the most iconic screensaver ever made. No movement input. No aiming. Just upgrades, escalating waves of screen burn-in, and the question that has haunted humanity since 1996: Will it hit the corner? Stack color-activated weapons, pile on upgrades until the screen tears, and transform a nostalgic logo into something genuinely unstoppable. Every run bounces further. Every wave hits harder. Pray you choose the right upgrades. Play actively, or enable full Auto-Mode and let it run forever in the background. The game can even be installed as an actual screensaver on machines running Windows*! PERFECT FOR Zoning out 🧘 Work sessions ☕ Second monitors 🖥️ As your actual functional screensaver* 🧑‍🔬 FEATURES No aiming, timing or direct movement input 🤞 Over 100 different upgrade choices 🧠 Escalating hordes of historically accurate enemies of the DVD 💀 Earn modchips to hack your DVD between runs 📈 Full auto-mode for a totally hands off experience 🏖️ Adapts to any screen size 🖥️ 4 elusive corners 🌈 Playable with a TV-remote** 📱 * Only available on Windows. Check out the pinned guide on the Discussions page for more info. ** Requires basic Arduino knowledge. Check out the pinned guide on the Discussions page for more info.[/p]
