How it feels

A quick, side-scrolling shooter where you push through enemy lines with responsive mouse aiming and the need to juggle weapons and reloads under pressure.

What players say

Players call it a faithful update of a 2000s flash game, just shoot and move. Expect a steep difficulty spike from stacked enemies and limited ammo. The weapon-switching takes getting used to, and the game is fully in Japanese. Runs fine on Steam Deck.
