How it feels

A relentless, gory side-scrolling shooter where you methodically aim and blast through pixelated dungeons with a melancholic, survivalist tone.

What players say

Players praise the responsive free-aim shooting and tight controls, comparing it to a 2D Doom or Metal Slug. The game is short but challenging, with a Normal mode that takes around one to three hours, and some players find the difficulty punishing and wish for easier settings or checkpoints.
