How it feels
A fast-paced arcade shoot 'em up where each run feels different thanks to procedural levels and unlockable ships, with tension from choosing riskier stages for better rewards.

What players say
Players praise the pixel art and music, calling it a fun rogue-lite take on classic shoot-em-ups like R-Type. However, some note the lack of meta-progression makes deaths feel punishing and the game can get repetitive. Controller support splits players, with a few reporting Xbox controllers don't work.
