The game features a fun and chaotic gameplay experience with colorful graphics and charming characters, making it enjoyable for both solo and co-op play.
The progression system is deep, with impactful upgrades that allow players to feel their characters getting stronger, and the game has a unique mod system.
Despite being in early access, the game runs smoothly and has a reasonable price point, providing good value for the entertainment it offers.

The game feels unpolished and incomplete, with bugs, limited content, and a lack of variety in maps and enemies, making it feel like it was released too early.
Some gameplay mechanics, such as movement and hit registration, need improvement, and the sound design can be repetitive and lacking in variety.
Currently, there are only three playable characters, and some abilities feel underwhelming, leading to a lack of excitement in character progression and upgrades.
