How it feels

A linear retro third-person shooter with dark humor and puzzle-filled arenas that feels like a tense, cinematic action movie with a silly edge.

What players say

Players call this a short, funny shooter with strong personality. They praise the writing and humor but criticize the tedious inventory system and weapon balance. A popular glitch lets you load unlimited ammo into the revolver.
