Proofreader
A first-person shooter built the same way as this site — no game engine, no WebGL, just a Canvas-2D raycaster. You are the proofreading domain of DNA polymerase: sweep a chromatin maze, clear replication mutations, and collect A · C · G · T. Plays with keyboard and mouse-look, or entirely by touch.
DNA Polymerase III ε Exonuclease Engine
Sweep the chromatin maze, excise replication mismatches, and scavenge dNTP charges.

How to Play & Proofreading Mechanics
Move: Use W A S D or arrow keys. On touch, drag the left half of the view like a thumbstick.
Look: Click the view for mouse-look (Escape releases pointer lock), turn with Left / Right or Q / E, or drag the right half on touch.
Fire: Press Space / Click or tap Fire Exonuclease to cleave and eliminate replication mutation lesions. Aim assist is active on touch devices.
Survive & Collect: Collect floating A · C · G · T dNTP gems to replenish charges and repair integrity. Use the biological radar in the corner to track approaching mutation threats.
