How it feels
A frantic and nostalgic arcade shooter that feels like a modernized bullet hell Asteroids, demanding quick reflexes and constant weapon upgrades.

What players say
Players describe it as an arcade shooter inspired by Asteroids and Robotron, with 40 levels, a boss every 10 waves, and five difficulty settings. The single-stick controls (movement and shooting direction are the same) polarize: some find it nostalgic, others challenging. There is no story. The difficulty is well tiered, from easy for newcomers to punishing hard modes.
