The gameplay is a unique blend of roguelite and bullet-hell mechanics, featuring short challenges where players accumulate buffs during combat but lose them upon returning to the hub. A standout feature is the requirement to stand still while shooting, adding a strategic layer to the experience. Overall, it offers a rewarding and engaging gameplay loop for fans of the genre.
“This game has good gameplay for being a roguelike.”
“The gameplay is a unique combination of roguelite and bullet-hell where you accumulate buffs each time you go through the combat zone and lose those buffs when you return to the hub, where you can get permanent upgrades or choose to play as the loli's sister, who is equally bad at English and also thinks she is some kind of demon lord.”
“The most original mechanic here is also the part that feels strangely rewarding; counter-intuitively, you only shoot while standing still.”
“Short gameplay and challenges.”

The game offers significant replayability for completionists aiming to fully upgrade all six weapons, though this involves repeatedly playing the same level multiple times.

“With numerous side quests and hidden secrets, every new game feels fresh and exciting, inviting players to dive back in for more.”

The monetization strategy appears to be influenced by mobile gaming practices, featuring an energy meter that limits gameplay unless players purchase more energy or watch advertisements.
“This is undoubtedly a decision that was carried over from mobile, where I presume there is an energy meter that lets you play so many times before you have to buy more or watch ads.”
“The monetization strategy feels overly aggressive, making it hard to enjoy the game without constantly being prompted to spend money.”
“It seems like the game is designed to push players towards microtransactions, which detracts from the overall experience.”
