How it feels
A fast, arcade-style retro shooter where you pick a character or team, blast through pixelated battlefields, and choose routes that affect your progress.

What players say
Players praise the frantic run-and-gun action and the variety of characters and branching paths, often comparing it to Metal Slug and Ikari Warriors. However, they are split on this port: some call it decent, while others report severe input lag, graphical downgrades, and frame drops. Most agree it is very short, finishable in under an hour.
