How it feels

A neon-lit arcade shooter that feels like a frantic, repetitive loop of breakdancing through space invaders while grinding for small upgrades.

What players say

Players describe it as a challenging mashup of Tetris, Space Invaders, and a deckbuilder like Slay the Spire. The meta progression is controversial, with one review arguing it undermines the deeper strategy, while most enjoy discovering powerful part and block synergies across runs.
