How it feels
Feels like a fast-paced, visually slick retro shooter with intense arcade action and a focus on precise dodging and weapon management.

What players say
Players say Power-Up is a competent but unremarkable side-scrolling shooter. It offers five weapons, but reviews agree that only the forward and spread shots are useful, making the weapon-switching gimmick feel unnecessary. The controls cannot be remapped and feel sluggish to some, while others find the game too easy to finish in a single sitting with no reason to return.
