How it feels

A frantic, adorable gun ballet where you leap between floating islands, precisely shooting colorful enemies while dodging endless bullets against a ticking clock.

What players say

Players say the main levels are easier and shorter than the first game, often finished in a couple of hours, but the final world Abyss is a brutal difficulty spike that some find no longer fun. The mechanics feel smooth and refined, though a few miss the original's challenge.
