What players say
Players are split on this Toaplan shooter. Some praise the helper system and strategic enemy priority, while many criticize bullet-sponge enemies and poor bullet visibility against backgrounds. Emulation quality is debated: some call it solid, others report choppy performance and missing pixel-aspect options. A notable deadzone issue on Steam Deck can be fixed by editing the controller layout.
