That drove Lupo to direct his concentration toward programming, and enthusiasm that he imparts to his dad Marco, a business director.

He took some online instructional exercises and set to chip away at building his game - Cerba-20.

The point of the game is a genuinely ordinary 'look for and decimate' with lasers, aside from for this situation, the player is in the chief's seat of the Cerba-20 shuttle and the foe is, it's hard to believe, but it's true, COVID-19.
