How it feels
A frantic bullet-hell shooter with a goofy historical sci-fi twist that feels like a fever dream from the golden arcade era.

What players say
Players describe a vertical shmup that requires memorization of enemy patterns rather than pure reflexes. Opinions are split: some enjoy the challenge and aesthetic, while others find controls unresponsive with Xbox controllers, levels too short, and difficulty spikes tedious in later stages.
