How it feels

A colorful, retro-inspired arcade shooter where you pilot a spaceship through alien worlds, frantically dodging bullets and swapping weapons.

What players say

Players agree the early escort mission ruins the fun, and many call the controls clunky while enemy projectiles move too fast. The weapon selection feels thin, the art style gets some praise, but the overall design pushes players toward better shoot-em-ups.
