What players say
Players praise the fractal dive-into-enemies mechanic but say there is no goal or end, and many find it pointless. Some call it a relaxing 15-minute session game, while others highlight unfair bullet patterns. Opinions split between those who appreciate it as art and those who see it as a raw unfinished concept.
