How it feels

A tough retro side-scroller where you blast through alien hordes as a determined farmer with an old rusty gun.

What players say

Players describe it as a hardcore retro platformer with unrebindable, sometimes clunky controls and a frustrating lack of diagonal aiming. The campaign is short with 17 levels and 5 bosses, and the single gun gains alternate ammo types, though players are split on whether the difficulty feels fair or broken.
