How it feels

Controlling a mech and a frog simultaneously creates a frantic, action-packed co-op flow where you're constantly juggling melee and ranged combat against colourful alien hordes.

What players say

Players say it is a fun co-op roguelike with a frog riding a mech, but the novelty fades after 10–20 hours when enemy and weapon variety runs out. Multiplayer is dead and many feel the loot balance is off, with some weapons and abilities feeling useless.
