How it feels

A tense, methodical shooter where each action is a measured sacrifice of irreplaceable energy, leaving a cold, melancholic inevitability.

What players say

A very short shooter that has players manage a single shared health and energy bar across all stages, a stamina system players found more limiting than fun. The split between horizontal dodging and vertical boss fights is interesting but underdeveloped, and many call it too expensive for its half-hour length even when discounted.
