How it feels
A fast-paced, punishing twin-stick shooter where you pilot a mech through endlessly evolving catacombs, with tight controls and a wide range of items and difficulty options.

What players say
Players call this a sci-fi Binding of Isaac with tight controls and a bullet-hell focus. The game was originally fast and deadly, but a patch made enemies tankier, which some say ruined the pace. Bullets move slowly, making it more calculated than other bullet hells, though the visual clutter can make it hard to tell what is happening.
