What players say
I want to like this game, it seems like something I should enjoy but I just don't. I get what it's trying to do and it just feels kind of tedious rather than action packed for me. I have started this game up a bunch of times and it just fails to grab my attention. If you do buy this and you like the side scrolling shooter stuff you should buy Elevator Action instead. I recommend it because it seems to be well made...

Fresh little action arcade game with some unique ideas. Unfortunately a bit too short.
