How it feels

A frantic, explosive side-scrolling shooter where you blast through walls and aliens with over-the-top weaponry.

What players say

Players are split on this old PS2-era port. It works on Windows 10 for some but has janky mouse controls that spin to a second monitor, no checkpoints, zero graphical settings, and inconsolably loud audio. Fans of the original praise the nostalgia, while others find it unplayable without heavy tinkering.
