How it feels

A fast-paced arcade brawler-shooter with colorful retro visuals and a comic-book story, mixing beat-'em-up combos with twin-stick shooting.

What players say

Players praise the hand-drawn comic art and dinosaur mounts but warn the campaign is only about 30 minutes long. Combat is described as janky and fun, yet the game is riddled with bugs and remains unfinished. Shooting sounds are distractingly loud, and some critics note a lack of interactive objects and weak boss fights.
