How it feels
A thoughtful twin-stick shooter that combines puzzle logic with strategic combat, feeling like a tense but calming medical lab experiment.

What players say
Players split on Metavaxx. Many praise the blend of minesweeper logic with top-down shooting, but a common complaint is that marking cells is an unlockable rather than a basic feature. Some find the camera nauseating and the levels too similar, while others love the hand-crafted stages and short runs.
