How it feels

A tough, arcade-style shoot-'em-up with retro 90s flair and a comedic tone, focused on blasting alien hordes through increasingly difficult levels.

What players say

Players praise the retro-inspired top-down platformer for its fun weapons, dynamic levels, and challenging boss fights. Some note that keyboard and mouse is better than controller because aiming is difficult, and one reviewer found the 'use' key binding awkward when moving.
