How it feels

What players say

Players describe it as a twin-stick shooter in the Vampire Survivors mold, with a gothic western aesthetic and pixel art. Opinions split on balance: some say it was too grindy and unbalanced at launch, while others praise the developers for rapidly addressing feedback.
