The gameplay features a manual fire and reload system within a roguelike framework, offering two distinct modes: tower defense and open/free movement horde gameplay. It combines elements reminiscent of the fort defense scenes from "Starship Troopers" with bullet hell mechanics, creating an engaging and dynamic experience.
