A minimalistic incremental arcade game
Bytecollector is a premium arcade PC game by developer The Tall Leaf. It's a casual incremental experience featuring minimalistic neon graphics and aesthetics. In it, players will be tasked with collecting data by drawing loops to capture it within a confined space. There are also multiple upgrades to unlock and help them be more effective.
Bytes of data
In Bytecollector, bytes of data are scattered and in flux all over the board. Collect them by drawing circles around them. Start small as you amass more dense and compact collections until you reach numbers in terabytes. The game requires speed and quick reflexes as you try to contain as much as you can within the space you draw.
There are also over 40 upgrades to unlock that change the gameplay in all kinds of ways, such as mirror drawing effects, bonus points, and many others to discover. Unfortunately, the core mechanics come with some obvious downsides. Chief among them is the physical strain that some players will experience by constantly moving their hands and wrists.
Fun with some pain
Bytecollector is one of those games that sounds fun in theory but is actually a bad idea in practice. The core mechanic of having to constantly draw circles will literally cause physical pain and discomfort for most. However, if you still want to give it a go and test yourself, just be aware of this major caveat and what can happen.
