How it feels

a hands-off space shooter where progress happens automatically as you upgrade and watch your fleet fight.

What players say

Players describe it as an unfinished Nodebuster clone. The early game is painfully slow, then progression suddenly spikes. Some say it is not really idle, requiring manual aiming. A critical bug that halts progress late-game was reported but never fixed, leading some to believe the developer abandoned the game.
