How it feels

A classic 2D shoot 'em up with exploration and tough duel-like boss battles, set in a medieval fantasy world.

What players say

Players praise its mix of classic shmup action with metroidvania-lite exploration and weapon upgrades borrowed from Mega Man. However, keyboard support is broken, and veterans warn the Definitive Edition adds little beyond co-op and language options to the original game.
