How it feels

A fast-paced, retro-inspired arcade shooter with dense bullet patterns and a fantasy setting, demanding precise movement and quick reflexes.

What players say

Players praise the tight controls, FM soundtrack, and unique monster-girl aesthetic but are split on the cover mechanic: some find it interesting, others say it ruins visibility and makes the game unfairly punishing if you lose a life.
