I'm not totally sure I understood this one but it was cool nonetheless! I couldn't really figure out where to get scrap (I think you might be able to get it from the computers and drones that wander around the overworld, but I was never able to kill one because the moment I started shooting at one I would get dogpiled by every other enemy at once haha). I tried fighting the boss without getting any upgrades and the first phase went by without me taking any damage, but during the second phase I would try to peak after the laser fired and it seemed like it wouldn't do any damage anymore, but every time I did I still took damage. I really, really dig the concept however, and the world looks really pretty. I like the subtle VHS effect. The sound design was also really nice. Great job!
