  • Creating More Effective Sectors - 6 September 2026

    Hey everyone!Here's a quick look behind the scenes of Absorber: I've been working on the Sector Editor to help me build and fine-tune encounters.I can place enemies and nodes, set up reinforcements, preview randomized spawns, and jump straight into a playable test. Built-in checks help me catch mistakes before testing.This means more time trying out different enemy combinations, adjusting the difficulty level, and making each sector more fun to play!

Consume enemies. Steal their powers. Survive the grid. A hardcore tactical roguelike on a 7×7 corrupted mainframe with 60+ synergistic programs. Permadeath. Every run matters.

About this game

You're a rogue process loose in a corrupted mainframe. Seven tiles by seven. Every enemy on the grid is carrying something you can take. Identity Hijack From Sector 4 onward, absorb minibosses and enemies to take their entire program kit. Lifesteal, defense, whatever they were running is now yours. Some kits come with penalties attached. High reward, high risk. Adaptive Threats The minibosses you face are shaped by how you play. Change your approach and different things come hunting you. Every run is one of a kind. 250+ Programs Build your loadout from a library of over 250 programs with stacking synergies. Every absorb changes what you're capable of, and what you're capable of changes what you should absorb next. Every Run Is New Procedurally generated floors, a shop between fights, and escalating difficulty as you push deeper into the system. Permadeath Get deleted and you start over. The grid doesn't negotiate. Steam Achievements Cloud Saves Stats and Leaderboards Full support in 9 languages Windows and macOS

Price History Overview

USD uses SteamPulse's own locally recorded daily store snapshots, so this overview reflects the exact regional price history that SteamPulse has captured for this currency.

Coverage And Tracking Window

  • Snapshots: 1
  • Coverage: Sep 23, 2026 to Sep 23, 2026
  • Lowest observed: $0.00
  • Highest observed: $0.00

Absorber: Absorb Adapt Survive's USD price history spans from Sep 23, 2026 to Sep 23, 2026, with 1 recorded snapshot across 1 calendar day. Each row records the available final price, listed base price, and discount metadata for that observation. Within this coverage the lowest recorded price is $0.00, the highest is $0.00, and the first visible tracked price is $0.00. These comparisons apply only to the snapshots SteamPulse holds; missing observations can contain changes that are not represented here.

For USD, SteamPulse uses locally captured regional storefront snapshots and does not reconstruct older prices with exchange-rate conversion. The chart and table show the values recorded for this exact currency from the stated coverage start. Additional snapshots extend that record, but they do not fill unobserved days or prove what the storefront displayed between observations.

Discount Windows And Sale Timing

  • Discount windows: 0
  • Discounted days: 0 days
  • Deepest markdown: No discount tracked
  • Latest sale window: No sale window tracked

Absorber: Absorb Adapt Survive's tracked USD rows do not contain a discount window. This means no available snapshot in the stated coverage has usable discount metadata; it does not prove that the game was never discounted. Missing snapshots or archived rows without complete metadata can hide a sale, so SteamPulse does not infer pricing strategy from this absence.

If a later snapshot includes discount metadata, it will appear here with its recorded depth, price, date, and sale name when available. Until then, this section should be read only as a description of the available rows, not as evidence about the publisher's promotion policy.

Observed Price Changes And Stable Runs

  • Observed price drops: 0
  • Observed price rises: 0
  • Longest stable run: 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking
  • Current run: 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking

Outside rows carrying discount metadata, the tracked price has not recorded a separate price rise or drop yet. That means the observed undiscounted level has stayed stable across the snapshots SteamPulse currently holds. This is a statement about the recorded coverage only; it does not prove that an older or missing price change never happened.

The longest unchanged price stretch in the current record lasts 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking at $0.00, from Sep 23, 2026 through Sep 23, 2026. Among rows without discount metadata, the longest unchanged run lasts 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking at $0.00. The latest run records $0.00 for 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking as the same recorded undiscounted price. Run lengths describe consecutive stored observations only and do not establish that a price is permanent.

Latest Snapshot And Sales Context

  • Current price: $0.00
  • Current list price: $0.00
  • Distinct observed prices: 1
  • Source mode: SteamPulse local tracking

The latest tracked snapshot records Absorber: Absorb Adapt Survive at $0.00 in USD, with no active discount metadata. Across the available history SteamPulse has recorded 1 distinct final price in this currency. This supports comparisons with the lowest, highest, and most common values present in the retained record, subject to the stated coverage limits.

The live sales view and Steam sales record provide calendar context for these dates. A date overlap can be compared with a named Steam event, but it does not prove why a publisher changed a price. As new daily rows arrive, this overview recalculates its observed prices, discount windows, and run lengths automatically.
