A fast-paced, top-down shooter that combines retro pixel graphics with a comic-inspired atmosphere, offering a non-linear journey through tough space contracts.

What players say
Players praise the quirky souped-up retro style, full of comic-book dialogue and onomatopoeia, but warn that the controls, especially ship inertia, take getting used to. The game is tough, with instant deaths and an oxygen system that punishes mistakes, which some love and others find frustrating.
