How it feels

A tough, fast-paced arcade shooter that tests your aiming skills through escalating waves with a retro pixel-art feel.

What players say

Players call it a free homage to Moon Patrol with a retro pixel look, but note the game lacks controller support despite the store page claiming it. The core loop involves buying ammo and shooting from a moving truck, with difficulty rising sharply and ammo conservation being key.
