A fast and frantic arcade shoot-em-up with a retro side-scrolling bullet-hell feel.

What players say
Players return for the nostalgia of a claymation shooter from 2002. The mouse controls are preferred over the keyboard or gamepad. Some note the lack of a save feature between levels, but many find it short and beatable even for newcomers.
