Redline protocol

Redline protocol is a side-view squad-defense shooter set in a neon-soaked cyberpunk future where players recruit, equip and position a five-woman team to hold the line against waves of enemies. The game mixes tactical positioning and class synergies with simple tap-to-activate specials, so building the right combo of Tank, Bruiser, Sniper, Artillery and Support matters as much as leveling. Recruitment uses an in-game gacha with no real-money purchases, and character affinity unlocks gallery events, narrative scenes and CG art—appealing to players who enjoy strategy, character collection and story-driven rewards.
