How it feels
A relentless, arcade-style run-and-gun that feels like a chaotic and gory retro shooter with procedurally generated arenas demanding quick reflexes.

What players say
Players praise the chiptune soundtrack and Smash TV-inspired action, but nearly everyone agrees the difficulty is punishing. A notorious mechanic locks the final boss behind a no-continues run, which many call unfair. Some also find the 8-way aiming and long levels frustrating, and a few report the game crashes on PC.
