A frantic old-school arcade shooter where you dodge a hail of bullets while sniping enemies with precise, high-damage shots.

What players say

Players praise the unique dual-control scheme where the ship autofires while the mouse aims a sniper cannon, but many say the constant clicking is unpleasant and wish for an autofire option. The game is short and very hard with psychedelic visuals, making it a satisfying pick for quick score-chasing sessions.
