How it feels

A fast-paced retro platformer shooter with tricky combat and sharp pixel graphics, where you dash through linear levels and face repeated tough bosses.

What players say

Players praise the crisp controls and varied bosses, but many say the final levels and last boss feel unfairly difficult. Checkpoints are sparse in later stages and one tank boss reappears too often. The game runs well on Steam Deck.
