How it feels

A glitchy mashup of classic arcade shooters and brawlers, played at a frantic, pixelated pace.

What players say

Players say it is a bullet-hell roguelike similar to Enter the Gungeon, with a short playtime of around 3 to 5 hours for the 3-run ending. Repeat runs feel samey, and some find the builds shallow, focusing on damage. Difficulty is light, but luck and eye strain from CRT effects are noted.
