Definitely has that arcade feel in multiple ways but its progress structure does set it apart. Quick Pros: -Good variety in weapons and stage layouts -Weapons are generally well-balanced -Enemies aren't designed to just immediately rush you from everywhere -Unlockable levels and weapons are based on playing through different stages -Good variety in upgrades Quick Pros: -Music is good but can easily be drowned out by everything going on -Some upgrades can affect weapon balance Game Mechanics Explained and Full Review Below: https://youtu.be/1bvwHkblB_U
Addictive wave shooter. Feels like the perfect balance between difficulty and power fantasy. Great atmosphere and tone. Really everything you could possibly want from a game like this. It feels polished, responsive, and thought out. PLUS no bugs, crashes, or any other weird quirks that could make it less fun. Honestly, a quintessential arcade game!

Fun game for killing time between more complex games. Plays like Crimsonland. I didn't had any bugs or crashes. Worth the asking price.
Great energy, fun gameplay, interesting music- this is a great example of a classic newgrounds-style arcade shooter. Lots of fun to be had here!
A nice little top down shooter. Had lots of fun trying to beat my own high scores. For what it is, I think it's a decent score based game. It can be challenging at times but that's the nature of the genre of arcade like games. For 4 bucks you really can't go wrong here. The music is also pretty decent.
Really good stuff, so much depth in the enemy behavior. Making them blow each-other up and tele-flanking them is super satisfying. Thanks for the good time man.
