How it feels

A fast-paced, colorful first-person shooter with retro pixel graphics, sliding and climbing mechanics, and a sci-fi story about a reborn defender protecting a drowning planet.

What players say

Players call it an ambitious but uneven one-man shooter with a short campaign, confusing level design, and slippery movement. Combat lacks challenge due to infinite ammo and weak enemies, though some enjoy the exploration and random weapon variety.
