A tense, pixelated top-down shooter with a dark and atmospheric monochrome hellscape, driven by an explosive retro-wave soundtrack.

What players say
Players describe a punishing short game where enemies have aimbot and one-hit kills make later levels feel luck-based. The final boss is widely considered unbeatable without exploiting a bug, splitting opinion on an otherwise fun experience.
