In Tech Lead, walk between the nearby buildings and use each office's rear datacenter room. At the AWS datacenter, press 1–3 or tap an AZ, then walk to your building's south shuttle stop and stay there until a shuttle arrives; boarding happens automatically. Press R or tap Dispatch Support to protect every site. On touchscreens, drag the left joystick and use the action buttons. Press P or Escape to pause. Your best score stays on this browser.
