Decently fun. A lot slower paced of a 2D shooter then I was expecting, but it gave a more tactical feel to the gameplay. Picking off each obstacle one by one was just as satisfying as any other game where you're killing hundreds of enemy ships a second. It also has a really clever life system where a game over results in restarting the entire stage but you keep all your upgrades and coins. Not only that but mini-bosses don't respawn either. You still have to redo the stage, but it doesn't feel deflating in the slightest. You may wonder "Then why have a live system", but I feel it adds tension to the boss fights that makes them a lot more rewarding to beat then if you could just brute force them thoughtlessly. Very short but doesn't overstay its welcome. Only had real issues with some of the boss fights on hard mode, namely since it felt that taking damage seemed inevitable. You get a decent amount of health, but it ain't a good sign when you get hit due to bad luck. That is the exception though thankfully.

I got it for $3 and I honestly would've been satisfied if I paid full price even with its short length.
