Drop into a neon-drenched cyber grid, stack and rotate blocks with responsive Super Rotation System (SRS) physics, detonate tactical sentinels, and chase massive combo scores to the beat of an original procedural Synthwave soundtrack. **🧱 Key Features** * **100% Procedural Synthwave Web Audio:** dynamic Korobeiniki synthwave tribute loop, driving bassline arpeggios, punchy 80s kick and snare, and reactive arcade SFX generated mathematically in real-time with zero external audio files. * **Tactical Height Sentinel System:** freeze time and position emergency items at any altitude line in the matrix.
