How it feels

A relentless, arcade-style shoot 'em up with handcrafted pixel art and a straightforward revenge story.

What players say

Players describe it as a competent but derivative vertical shmup with a steampunk theme, humorous writing, and a short one-hour campaign. The color palette makes enemy bullets hard to see, and controls cannot be rebound. Some find it too difficult on later levels, while others call it accessible for newcomers.
