About this game

This is a 2D shooter / platformer with old school gaming values in a decidedly new school execution. During the intense 360 degree shooting and platforming action, players learn to alter the behavior of their robotic enemies by collecting and uploading hacks.

Pros & Cons

Pros

Fast 360-degree shooting combines movement with platforming.
Deliberately difficult levels and encounters require precise action.
Enemy hacking adds tactical variety to shooting.
Responsive controls support precise combat and platforming.
Colorful visuals, energetic presentation, and irreverent humor.

Cons

High difficulty demands repeated deaths and precise execution.
The main campaign is relatively short.
Platforming is less developed than the shooting.

Pros & Cons are AI-assisted summaries, not our own playthrough reviews. Sources and how we make recommendations.
