What players say
Players praise the PC version as a solid Build Engine FPS distinct from its console Metroidvania counterpart, but recommend using source ports like Raze or BuildGDX to avoid crashes and bugs. The level design is a highlight, while weapons and enemy variety draw criticism, and opinions split on whether the game is too easy or unfairly hard.
