The gameplay is praised for its engaging slash/shoot mechanics, reminiscent of Ikaruga's color-switching system, which adds depth to boss battles and level progression. While players find the overall experience enjoyable and consider it a hidden gem, there are calls for necessary gameplay modifications to enhance the experience further.
“Considering the amount of reviews, I’ll say this is a hidden gem. The slash/shoot mechanic is awesome, and on certain bosses, you're forced to use one of the two to actually deal damage, similar to the way Ikaruga works with the red/blue bullets, having to switch from one side to the other, and it works wonders.”
“Great game and extremely underrated; the blue to red mechanic is like Ikaruga.”
“Aside from that, certain gameplay modifications are desperately needed.”
“Gameplay is clearing levels, doing minigames, and fighting boss battles.”
