Aetherline Protocol

Aetherline Protocol is a fast horizontal space shooter built around glowing vector combat, handcrafted sectors, giant multi-phase bosses, and permanent ship progression.

Fly through seven hostile sectors, weave through dense attack patterns, collect scrap energy, and trigger frame-specific super weapons when the screen turns against you. Every battlefield is drawn in a sharp neon style with terrain, hazards, particle bursts, synth audio, and boss encounters tuned for quick arcade runs.

Features:
- Seven campaign sectors with distinct enemies, hazards, and boss fights
- Endless Survival mode with escalating rift corruption and recurring bosses
- Six ship frames with unique handling, opening weapons, and super attacks
- Six weapon families, wing drones, power-ups, shields, and screen-clearing abilities
- Permanent Aether Point upgrades through an Armory progression tree
- Lore briefings, boss dossiers, and collectible data fragments
- Game Center leaderboards and achievements
- Optional rewarded ads for bonus points, next-run frame trials, Nova charge, and continues
- Optional Remove Ads purchase that removes banner/interstitial ads and grants 1000 Aether Points

Aetherline Protocol is designed as an arcade-first sci-fi shooter: drag to fly, fire automatically, switch weapons, charge your special, and push deeper into the rift.
