How it feels

A fast-paced, retro-inspired spaceship shooter where you dodge relentless bullet patterns while collecting power-ups and upgrades to survive increasingly tough bosses.

What players say

Players say the pixel art looks amateurish and the game feels unfinished, with bugs like bosses not appearing or title screens looping. The core gameplay is fun for some, though others call it a poor Galaga clone. Sound effects are a mixed point. The game is short and may not be updated.
