How it feels

A nostalgic, fast-paced twin-stick shooter with a retro atmosphere where you battle chaotic magical hordes in top-down style.

What players say

Players describe it as a solid Smash TV-inspired twin-stick shooter with tight controls and creative bosses, but nearly everyone notes it is very short, most finish in under 90 minutes, and lacks content after completion. Some praise the retro look and music, while others warn of visual spam that makes deaths feel unfair.
