How it feels
Feels like an old-school arcade shooter with authentic 8-bit graphics and sound, where rapid reflexes and score chasing drive the action.

What players say
Players call it a genuine Famicom-style shmup that wears its Compile influences (Aleste, Zanac) proudly. It is seen as approachable with great music, but several reviewers warn that accidentally grabbing a weak weapon can make sections nearly impossible, and death resets your power to near zero.
