How it feels

A fast-paced retro side-scrolling shooter with frantic bullet hell combat and a gritty post-apocalyptic steampunk aesthetic.

What players say

Players say the steampunk side-scroller is brutally hard, with a repetitive five-second guitar loop and checkpoints that force full restarts. A boss fight with a flying whale left some stuck. A quick, inexpensive time-killer if you can handle the difficulty.
