Algiz: The Golem

Algiz: The Golem

In Algiz: The Golem, you take on the role of a protective golem tasked with safeguarding an energy orb in the center of the map. Every minute, waves of  stronger enemies approach, aiming to destroy both the orb and the golem. Your mission is to survive for five minutes while managing both the golem's energy and the incoming enemy waves.

The golem has limited energy that decreases when moving, shooting, or staying still. To keep the golem alive, you'll need to defeat enemies and collect the orbs they drop to recover energy. If the golem runs out of energy or the orb is destroyed, the game is over.

Controls:

• Arrow keys: Move and aim.
• Z: Perform a dash .
• X: Shoot to eliminate enemies.

Overcome the challenges, manage your energy wisely, and keep the golem standing long enough to win. Can you survive the enemy waves and protect the orb until the end?
