A casual mix of bullet-hell shooting and idle progression where you gradually upgrade a vehicle while managing resources on the fly.

What players say

Players praise the backpack inventory mechanic and find it fun for the price, but consistently criticize the balance: starting weapons outperform everything unlocked, forcing repetitive runs and restart grinding. Many call it a short, buggy mobile-style game with no real idle mechanics despite the tag, and some note the campaign has only 121 levels with no further updates.
