How it feels
A stripped-down, focused retro shoot-em-up that asks you to concentrate purely on dodging and shooting without any distractions.

What players say
Players praise it as a love letter to classic shmups like Thunder Force and Zanac, with fast action and varied weapon loadouts. They note the difficulty is fair despite heavy bullet density, though some find boss patterns repetitive and the speed selector clunky.
