The game's story is minimal and may be easily overlooked, as it primarily focuses on gameplay mechanics like exploration and combat rather than a narrative. While there are some structured levels and missions, the overall emphasis is on interactive elements rather than a cohesive storyline.
“The game runs smoothly and is interactive in all the ways I wanted: it's easy to move around, you can dodge projectiles from enemies, and the exploration portion of the game is surprisingly rewarding, especially for a game centered around quests and fighting.”
“There is a tutorial, 2 story levels, and an infinite wave room.”
“For the low price tag of zero dollars, you get to explore procedurally generated worlds and complete a variety of missions.”
“If there is a story here, I must have missed it.”
