How it feels

You control a cute duck in a chaotic top-down shooter where you must survive waves of enemies by picking random power-ups and using intermittent ponds to heal.

What players say

Players like the cheap price and retro Atari look, but split on the soundtrack and find difficulty spikes after 20 minutes. Some complain the healing upgrade is identical to the health cap upgrade and doesn't work, while others report performance lags late game.
