How it feels

A frantic wave-based shooter where you and friends rush to buy upgrades and survive endless monster hordes between citadel rests.

What players say

Players are split: some call it a fun co-op time killer for a solo indie project, others say it is an asset flip with a mobile-style cash shop. Common complaints include no pause in single player, small cramped maps, and maxing upgrades in 20 minutes. Co-op is the main appeal, but the lobby-hosting setup frustrates those wanting matchmaking.
