A kind of game I wish there was a lot more of: focused on build creation, but not long and grindy, and not permadeath so you get to incrementally improve and experiment without being beholden to RNG like so many roguelikes. The game itself is far from a perfect realization though. Graphics are of course very bare bones, and I'd say the game at the heart of it(slightly fancier Asteroids) is as well. I'd prefer something more there on both counts, though I can definitely respect the minimalism.

Its remarkable how in many ways this little game managed to pre-empt the Vampire Survivors craze in such a unique and compelling way. The price is perfect, the mood is perfect. Sell some steam cards and get it for yourself or a friend, you won't regret it.

The core gameplay is alright, although the general scale and speed makes precision aiming challenging. Obviously the strength of the game is its absurd passives system, which gives excellent replayability. Making a winning build took a little trial and error but was very possible without using a guide or any build advice. Very strong visual style that can border on overwhelming (which I think no one expects from an Asteroids-style game). Definitely good value for the price and clear care put into the design. Feels like an indie hit from a decade ago in all the best ways.
