How it feels

Frenetic combat with constant explosions and enemy waves, driven by fast movement and powerful weaponry in a chaotic side-scrolling arena.

What players say

Players call it a hardcore run-and-gun with good music and boss variety, but almost everyone complains about the lack of gamepad support, awkward keyboard controls, and a cooldown energy bar that kills the flow. Bugs with checkpoints and visuals that hide enemy fire are frequently reported, and many say it feels unfinished.
