What players say

I've have some good fun with this game so far. It controls well with my 360 controller and plays nice with my 2560 x 1440 screen. The trailer and demo show what the game is about. It's got 4 levels of difficulty. I'm on the second easiest and it's not super easy on that level but do able for me. I can't imagine trying to do this game on the highest difficulty level.

Reminds me a little bit of Cannon Fodder.. only quicker, more action packed, more modern, no need to worry about recruits and put simply, a lot more fun. I got it for $0.95 USD on sale. Since I've already been playing it for over an hour, I've already got my money's worth. Not sure I'd recommend it at $5.99 as half of the levels aren't unlocked yet due to being in Early Access, and there's no Steam Achievements or...

Pretty nice top down shooter inspired by classic 80s action movies and arcade shooters with catchy gameplay and beautiful pixelart graphics. Where's the sequel?!
