How it feels

a fast-paced, chaotic arcade shooter where relentless cellular automaton enemies explode unpredictably to an energetic techno beat.

What players say

Players are split on Vectrix: some enjoy the challenge and synthwave aesthetic, but many find it frustrating or unplayable due to enemies spawning directly on the player, rounded directional shooting in a bullet hell, and hard-coded controls or resolution with no settings menu.
