    The gameplay is fast-paced and engaging, with players having just 6 seconds to clear randomized rooms, which enhances replayability. While lower-end computers may struggle with performance issues like low frame rates and occasional freezes, the game offers a variety of unlockable weapons and mutators that significantly alter gameplay dynamics. Overall, it features a solid gameplay loop reminiscent of "Hotline Miami," appealing to players who enjoy quick, action-packed sessions.

    • “Love how the rooms are randomized and how you can use mutators to shake up the gameplay; all of this really adds to the replayability!”
    • “There's also 46 unlocks between new weapons and mutators, so the gameplay elements build at a steady pace between runs.”
    • “Good gameplay loop with lots of ways to randomize it.”
    • “I do own a potato, so this review is more technical, but if you are on a lower-end computer, then you'll get like 8 fps tops during gameplay, and the game sometimes even freezes if you lock on or shoot at a target.”
    • “This does get better after a couple of rounds of gameplay, but it does get rather annoying when starting a session.”
    • “Gameplay that pleases the lizard brain.”
