I liked this a lot. In the survivors genre, it can’t live up to the king, even though it predates it by a few months. I love the character design and aesthetic overall, but I wish there was more to its look. The white bullets drowning things out make it a bit difficult to perceive what’s going on sometimes, making stray bullets easier to land. I do like that in some spots it has more depth given that you have to aim and fire(though auto-aim bridges that). But its upgrades are fairly limited and its progression is a bit less rewarding.

Moment to moment it’s just as rewarding as VS, however. But given its combos and the way its synergies manifest, it’s a little harder to feel where the gap is between your choices and the offerings presented.

I love the reindeer transformation character, and the twirling Tazlike(who I finally was able to beat the three levels with).
One thing VS doesn’t do despite its sensory overload is cause a Tetris effect in me and this has.
Great game!
