A fast, frantic arcade shooter where every shot fills a risk-reward meter that can backfire, demanding quick reflexes and strategic restraint.

What players say
Players praise the clever heat mechanic that rewards controlled fire, but many find the upgrade system shallow, often forcing a choice between the highest numbers. Opinion splits on balance: some call it unbalanced and easy to cheese, while others enjoy the challenge modifiers.
