Good design, a steal a $3

The older I get the more I appreciate this game genre. I’ve only seen a little so far and didn’t understand the aiming and starting weapon at first, but what’s here is great. Smart design. It’s one analogue stick if you use a controller. Level and upgrades are great. You can kill with pizza!

No idea how much content there is yet and at $3 it hardly matters. This won’t stop people from complaining that it isn’t “free” because that’s the world we live in. People seem to throw away time watching ads expecting to live forever.

A lot of fun

I’m actually surprised that this game is not popular. It definitely deserves more attention. I had a lot of fun playing it. As a big “survivors” games fan I can only recommend this one

One of the best!

This is definitely in the top 5 best survivor/vs horde/bullet Heaven genre. It has controller support too.

Good game

Having actually played the game now:
* The graphics are cute and the effects are nice.
* I like the breakable terrain.
* Unlocks are fun and game progresses at a decent pace.
*PLEASE include an ‘effects opacity’ option. The game emphasizes maneuverability to avoid boss attacks, but I end up being unable to see the attack markers because the screen is swamped by my own effect spam.
