this is by far the funnest game i have played on my steamdeck.
my entire family LOVES trying to beat our high score.

i wish there was some more depth perhaps. but the simplicity makes it great!

highly recommended!

its sick innit hard as hell but sick

- Addictive
- Good controls
- Good art/themes
- Great price on sale


- Scaling is non-existant, everything depends on luck and you dodging bullets

- Difficulty scaling is kind of absurd, its like a cashgrab arcade. One moment you clear the whole screen, the other moment three aircraft with predictive aim start to chase you down as the elite units spawn.

- Despite the touted 125 combinations, they're rather lackluster, 3 modifiers with 5 options, so 5*5*5 is how you get that 125 number, don't let it fool you, realistically only maybe 5 of those combinations are viable enough to run. You unlock 4 from each row very easily, and the last one takes forever, as of writing this, I still haven't unlocked it while I unlocked the 4*4*4 just 1 hour in.



If, and only if, you get it on sale, its a great time killer when you're taking breaks. You can easily go 5 - 10 runs in under 10 minutes.

Would I recommend this on full price?

Absolutely not.

There are much better options out there that offer a ton of more content and variety in builds as well as better scaling. One such recommendation is Nova Drift while it is a bit more expensive, it is way more value for money. I have over 200 hours in Nova Drift and I still have yet to exhaust all the content and builds that I want to run. Yet in this game, 6.5 hours in and 90% of the game is done. There's nothing to do now but do the same mundane crap again. I'd much rather a modern roguelike than just die in 20 seconds over and over with absolutely nothing changing besides enemy RNG.
