Players rate it 91 percent positive over its lifetime, and the last 30 days run 99 percent. It is aging into a better game than its average suggests.

What players say

90 seconds of bullets, swords, guns and complete chaos. Fast enough to fry your brain and addictive enough to make you immediately hit restart. Pure arcade madness.

A very streamlined little bullet hell that is surprisingly enjoyable to play. The runs can feel very similar, yet the game never becomes truly repetitive because you always want to go for one more run. Very addictive, and at its discounted price, it is an easy recommendation. 100% Steam Achievements Time: 2.9 hours Completion Difficulty: 2/10 Playthrough: 5+ Missable: No Guide Recommended: No DLC Required: No Online...
