How it feels

A quick, arcade-style 1-on-1 shooter that feels like a playful, low-stakes duel where goofy wall-running and trick shots matter more than tactics.

What players say

Players call it a dead-on-arrival arena shooter with no one to play against. The parkour movement and a training obstacle course are the few bright spots, but poor hit registration, unresponsive running and sliding, and obvious asset-store graphics sink it. A handful find it fun to goof around with a buddy.
