How it feels
A frantic, pixelated old-school shooter where you drift through zero gravity, blasting enemies in procedurally generated sci-fi tunnels with a punishing permadeath loop.

What players say
Players call it a competent 6DOF shooter in the style of Descent, but the campaign can be completed in under two hours. Reviews split on whether the procedural generation makes up for a bare-bones enemy roster and only three bosses, some find the lack of a map and corridor-heavy combat frustrating, while others enjoy the retro aesthetic and satisfying flight controls for the asking price.
