A straightforward, low stakes space shooter with repetitive enemy waves and a slow, predictable difficulty curve.

What players say
Players describe this as a simple, old-school shoot-'em-up that starts like Space Invaders but quickly becomes its own thing. A notable quirk: pressing Escape closes the game rather than pausing it, and there is no mouse support or achievements.
