How it feels

A fast, twitch-based sword-shooting game that feels deceptively simple at first but quickly demands sharp reflexes and patient strategy.

What players say

Players describe it as a simple one-button arcade game where you shoot past rotating obstacles. It is short and hardcore, with repetitive enemies and a chiptune soundtrack. Some find it addictive, while others say it lacks depth.
