How it feels

A blisteringly fast on-rail shooter that throws relentless waves of enemies and traps at you while a pumping soundtrack drives the action.

What players say

Players are split on Shapeshooter. Some find it an addictive reflex challenge with a unique mood and soundtrack, while others complain about clunky controls, awkward key bindings, distant checkpoints, and a camera that induces headaches on curved tracks. A common frustration is the lack of a return-to-menu option.
