How it feels

A relaxed but frenetic arcade shooter where you mow down hordes of enemies with over-the-top weapons, focusing on satisfying carnage rather than challenge.

What players say

Players describe it as a fun but shallow run and gun with little reason to replay once the game crasher is unlocked. Some praise the fluid gameplay and aesthetic, but many find it monotonous after a short time.
