How it feels
a sleek, one-button arcade shooter that feels quick to learn but punishing to master.

What players say
Players describe this as a minimalist one-button Asteroids-style shooter that is simple to pick up but tough to master. They praise the unlockable ships and power-ups, and note the clean, understated presentation, though some mention a muddy soundtrack and that the screen shake can be overwhelming. A few players could not get used to the single-button control scheme.
