  • Fun, fast-paced arena shooter with smooth movement and shooting mechanics.
  • Unique and appealing art style with good visual and audio feedback, including a catchy soundtrack.
  • Free game with a solid foundation and potential for expansion, appreciated especially as a student project.
  • Limited content with only one map, three enemy types, and minimal weapon and upgrade variety leading to repetitive gameplay.
  • Technical issues including frequent crashes, graphical glitches, and bugs like getting stuck in terrain or enemies.
  • Small arena size and enemy design (especially flying eyes) often cause frustration, making dodging and maneuvering difficult.

    • “Super high-paced game with a very unique art-style.”
    • “Good little shooter, cool aesthetic.”
    • “I wanted to like this, but this seems to have a major graphical bug for some people, making the game almost unplayable. In some cases, the game won't even start due to this bug.”

    50% positive mentions, 33% neutral mentions, 17% negative mentions

    The music in the game is consistently praised as catchy and energizing, enhancing the overall gameplay experience. While the variety in enemies and power-ups is limited, the soundtrack helps maintain engagement and complements the cool environment.

    • “One level, one pistol, two powerups, 3 enemy types and a few waves to shoot through with kickass music.”
    • “For now there are only 3 types of enemies and 2 power-ups, so it gets boring after 10+ waves, but with killing demons and a banger soundtrack playing in the background, I can see this as a great time-killing game.”
    • “The environment is also cool alongside the catchy music.”
    • “While I move and weave to metal music?”

  • gameplay

    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    50% positive mentions, 17% neutral mentions, 33% negative mentions

    The gameplay is described as simple and repetitive, mainly involving moving to enemy-free areas and shooting. While some find it fun and easy with entertaining mechanics like dashing, others note a lack of depth and desire additional features like a field-of-view setting.

    • “Award winning gameplay strategy: jump around like a crack-addicted jackrabbit and kill all the eyes.”
    • “This is not a bad game; for anyone wanting to play, it's a fun game, the achievements are easy and the gameplay is simpler.”
    • “The dash mechanic is also a little weird; if you dash forward, it goes to where your mouse is pointing, so you can get quite a bit of air time by doing so as well as usually getting yourself unstuck.”
    • “Unfortunately, currently the gameplay is very basic and never asks you to do anything besides run to an enemy free space and then shoot them all in the head.”
    • “The dash mechanic is also a little weird; if you dash forward, it goes to where your mouse is pointing, so you can in fact get quite a bit of air time by doing so as well as usually getting yourself unstuck.”
