How it feels

A fast-paced retro-style action game where you slay demons in a pixelated modern city, balancing cute visuals with dark humor and souls-like challenge.

What players say

Players praise the nostalgic 90s feel and fluid controls, but split on length: some call it a quick pleasant trip while others wish it were longer. A notable crash when picking up the sword is widely reported, and keyboard control remapping is locked, frustrating some.
