How it feels

A frantic, punishing twin-stick shooter where you cycle between characters with distinct playstyles, learning through repeated violent deaths in a neon-drenched dystopia.

What players say

Players compare it to Hotline Miami in a cyberpunk setting, but opinions are split. Some love the risk-reward tension of one-shot kills, others find the AI erratic and the combat unsatisfying. A few report progression-blocking bugs, while an assist mode is mentioned for difficulty.
