How it feels
A fast-paced retro mecha shooter with simple controls and modern visuals, feeling like an arcade action game.

What players say
Players praise the mech-to-jet transformation gimmick and resource management but are split over the floaty controls and visual clutter that obscure enemy attacks. Many call it a faithful yet flawed revival, with several noting the absence of online leaderboards and occasional Steam Deck problems.
