What players say
Players call it a Hotline Miami-inspired twin-stick shooter where you take the body and weapon of every enemy you kill. It has 169 levels across 13 chapters, but the final boss is widely described as a bullet sponge. Several reviewers found the audio turned off by default on first launch.
