How it feels

A fast and punishing top-down shooter with surreal, psychedelic pixel art and a darkly humorous anthropomorphic world.

What players say

Players call it a low-budget Hotline Miami clone with a deliberately harsh visual filter that makes everything hard to see. Controls are not explained and items require precise clicking to pick up. A few note bugs like weapons carrying over between runs and achievements not unlocking, but most still find it fun for its very low price and short hour-and-a-half length.
