a fast-paced, retro arcade shoot-'em-up where you frantically blast alien swarms and dodge complex attack patterns while chasing chain bonuses and power-ups.

What players say

Players compare it heavily to Xenon 2, and many enjoy it as a nostalgic throwback. However, the low 640x480 resolution, lack of a pause button, and bosses that can instantly kill you by ramming frustrate others. Controller support requires setup in options, and the single music track across all levels disappoints.
