How it feels

A chaotic, top-down pixel hack-and-slash where you bash enemies in quick, repetitive runs.

What players say

Players compare it to its predecessor In Celebration of Violence, but find it rougher. Combat feels clunky with a tripping mechanic that frustrates, and basic quality-of-life features like restarting or keeping a weapon after death are missing. Players split on whether the lack of hand-holding is rewarding or punishing.
