How it feels

A fast-paced, minimalist survival game where you fight endless enemies with roguelite progression, balancing risk and reward through permanent upgrades.

What players say

Players praise the minimalist arcade feel and short session structure, but many criticize the upgrade system for lacking damage options, leaving runs to random luck. The game crashes near the end when too many items drop, and development has stopped. Some note a hard-to-read font and oddly wet menu sounds.
