No achievement in this game marks the ending, so there is no finish rate. The curve runs from the most-unlocked achievement to the rarest, and its shape is where players stop. Steam global achievements

What players say

Do you like SuperHot, Deadpool, and Robots? Then this is the game 4 you! You are a robo rebel with 2 pistols and 2 katanas. You can press the grip buttins to slow down time and give yourself better aim, more time to react, and make it easier to cut bullets and ROCKETS in half. The cutting mechanics are ok but im sure that they could be better. BEWARE, this game is hard even my best friends who have great aim...

Extreme novice here. Great game for me, no frills and lots of challenging shooting.
iopenerRecommendedafter 11hSep 2024Read on Steam
Pretty subpar by all means. No story. You can't move. Game doesn't save your progress if you selected a level, very annoying thing. I've almost completed level 2, then exited and when I selected continue I'm somewhere in the beginning of level one. No motivation to play from the start again.
