✦ AI summary
Players praise this arcade game for its addictive, simple gameplay with good progression through objectives and a satisfying "one more try" loop, though opinions vary on difficulty—some find it engaging while others think it's too easy. Common criticisms include technical performance issues like frame rate problems and occasional slowdown, plus a general consensus that the limited content makes it better value as a sale purchase rather than at full price. Co-op modes and handheld portability are appreciated as nice additions for casual play sessions.
When I started this game and looked at the clock at some point, it was already an hour later. Quite an addictive and simple little game. Get as far as you're able while dealing with any 1 of several types of obstacles. Each type lasts anywhere from 5-15 seconds. The audio fits well with it. There are also 50 Objectives to give the player a sense of progression besides just score chasing. In addition to this, there's a local co-op option with some unique modes as well. Maybe not quite worth it at the full $5 price, it's a good deal on sale.2 found this helpful
Not good. #1 for a bullet hell the game is insanely slow and easy. I survived for 5 minutes my first try and just ended up killing myself (in game) on purpose because I got bored. Its possible that I just got a "lucky" set of easy patterns, but I had zero interest in continuing to play in the hopes that maybe it would get slightly harder. #2 Frame rate, for whatever reason it seemed like maybe i was playing the game in slight slow motion. It looked like it was locked to 45ish FPS, and the gameplay trailer for the game looks to play way faster and smoother than what i was actually experiencing in game. For reference Im running windows 10, gtx 1060 6gb, i5-7600k, 144hz G-Sync monitor I tried setting my monitor to various refresh rates and resolutions and it didn't help. The game has no settings menu as far as I can tell. And tbh even if the game ran at 2x speed it wouldnt be much more difficult just because of how simplistic the patterns are. On the + side, the game looks like it could maybe be a decent party game with a group of friends, even then it is still way too easy IMO unless you made it into a drinking game lol.1 found this helpful
Cute and simple little Arcade game. Great for booting up on a handheld PC for a quick round or two before playing something else. It's a lot of fun! Get it on sale though...Not a lot of content, but that's fine by me!
certified hood classic, good gameplay, very epic. 10/10

For the $0.62 I paid for this, it was worth it. I wouldn't say it's worth full price, but it has that "one more try" thing going for it. I'll probably put in another 20-40 minutes before I give up. It's fun to discover the different boss attacks and learn to dodge them. I was a child of the 70's and spent my adolescence in 80's arcades, so the way I think about it is that as long as a game gives you the same play you'd expect from the same number of quarters in the arcade, it's an easy Thumb's Up.
