I loved this game, the movement feels fluid and polished, with a quake feeling to it. Wide variety of weapons and upgrades that make each run feel different. 100% worth a cop, especially if on sale. :)

Very well made arena shooter, beautiful graphics, pleasant and interesting gameplay, cool effects from shots and killing opponents, mechanics of summoning spikes, very simple and intuitive to use, interesting opponents and vertical gameplay, sold at a very low price, I recommend trying to play.

short review Yup, it's not a masterpiece nor the best of games, it becomes repetitive after a while (both in upgrades and enemies)... but still, it is not a bad game. Actually, the fact that is barebones helps the gameplay shine even more, and the gameplay is quite engaging! offering a good pace and some versatility between the gun and the spikes. So, even If I am not the most enthusiastic fan of this game (or the genre of roguelike shooters, but I still like playing them), and was about to give it the thumbs down,... still, on second though, the game still managed (in the abysmal time I've played it) to give me short (and advice you not to play for long session) burst of mild adrenaline and small, packed amount of fun time! Not much, but enough!

Really fun game, great feel and sounds, satisfyingly crunchy and enough weird physics to string together some cool moves. I mainly play arena fps multiplayer and this scratches the itch. Has that 'just one more run' vibe.

Some of the best movement I've seen so far and the gunplay feels really good too. The ui makes it look a bit unfinished tho.
