How it feels
A fast, colorful arcade shooter that feels like a modern take on a retro space blaster, with simple cooperative play and constant explosions.

What players say
Players are split on this space shooter, originally called Guntech. It got a name change to URG that briefly broke the game until a 2021 quick fix. Those who enjoy it like the graphics, upgrades and speedrun potential, but a few find it dull for modern times. Work on Linux is appreciated.
