What players say

Extremely underrated weird almost shmup type thing with Savant music. If you love arcade action please give this one a go it has no right to be so good.

Fun and addictive! A nice little schmup with great electronic music from Savant.
GingerbonezRecommendedafter 24hJul 2026Read on Steam
Really tuff game However a little too short for my liking even for an arcade bullet hell game. Really tight controls and the enemy waves are interesting. Have yet to try out the survivor mode but I have beaten the game on classic and reached the final boss on hardcore. Definitely worth getting especially if on sale.
