How it feels

A fast-paced side-scrolling action game with pixel graphics and sci-fi weapons, set in a cyberpunk city filled with corporate corruption.

What players say

Players praise the combat mechanics and cyberpunk pixel art but are frustrated by input lag, stiff movement, and frequent bugs. The save system is prone to corruption, resetting upgrades after crashes, and late bosses become punishingly hard due to random move sets. Reviews split on whether the depth of skills and tools justifies the rough edges.
