Can you outsmart the laser grid?

LASER VAULT: Diamond Thief is a premium neon-arcade stealth game where you control a cyber ninja infiltrating a high-security vault. Your mission: collect glowing diamonds while evading a deadly field of pulsing laser beams — without getting caught.

Simple one-finger controls. Infinite levels. Escalating challenge. Every session is a new test of your reflexes and pattern recognition.

🏆 PROGRESSION SYSTEM

LASER VAULT features a 3-tier nested difficulty ladder — designed so the challenge always feels rhythmic, fair, and satisfying:

Pattern Rotation (Meso)
Every 3 levels, laser positions shift to a completely new layout. Patterns are generated with:
- Minimum 1-column spacing between any two lasers — no impossible walls
- Anti-synchronization phases — lasers never all extend at the same time
- Deterministic seeding — the same level always has the same layout, so you can learn and master each stage

❤️ LIFE SYSTEM

- Start with 3 lives (hearts)
- Earn +1 life on every level-up (max: 5 lives)
- Lose a life when a laser catches you
- 1.5-second recovery window after being caught before you can move again
- All lives gone → Mission Failed
