How it feels

Playing a straightforward, faithful 1990s arcade-style beat 'em up with a friend on the same screen.

What players say

Players describe this as a straightforward 1997 Korean arcade beat 'em up ported to Steam, delivering nostalgic 16-bit action for genre veterans. However, several reviewers warn that controller support is broken, with no d-pad option and the pause mapped only to the keyboard. Opinions praise the retro feel and co-op fun while citing weak enemy variety and an overall lack of originality.
