A twin stick pixelated roguelite that plays exactly like the combination of games it claims as its inspiration - Nuclear Throne, Risk of Rain, and Overture, two pretty good games and one awful one.

It's the usual roguelite fare as you explore procedurally generated dungeons and shoot at everything that moves, occasionally picking up power ups that may or may not be enough to carry you further into the game. There are secrets to be found and other characters to unlock, but largely this plays like a much more grindy knock off of Enter the Gungeon which came out 8 months before.

It plays okay and has its own charm, but it drips with unoriginality and doesn't offer anything it's competition does better.
