How it feels

You dodge bullets by moving your whole body in front of a webcam, making every frantic lean and duck feel directly wired to the survival of a pixel core.

What players say

Players enjoy the active break this motion-controlled bullet hell provides, but note it is short and some encounter serious camera bugs. The final boss is a steep difficulty spike, and there are known issues with AMD GPUs and 30 FPS webcam tracking. The developers are active on Discord and responsive to bugs.
