How it feels

a frantic, limb-flying sidescroller that channels the raw, improvisational action of old Flash animations

What players say

Players describe Ballistick as a simple sidescrolling shooter that feels like an old flash game. While some enjoy it for its low price and stealth missions, many note it suffers from clunky controls that cannot be remapped, broken controller input on PC, no checkpoints, repetitive music, and performance issues.
