The presentation of the game is this pretty adorable like, old-timey movie, and in fact the end credits are presented and set up as if they're movie credits, which I find super cute.

I also can't help but love that the final level is a 'From the Earth to the Moon' homage, complete with crashed bullet and all. Clearly the creators had a lot of fun and you can tell a lot of love went into this!

.....BUT, gosh. There's a lot of awful stuff in here. All of the bosses take WAAAAAAY too long, with really fiddly little hitboxes for stuff. Also gimme some more weapons ahhhhhh just the same boring little bullets was a bit obnoxious. It's interesting having played a bunch of shooters now because I don't often think about the varied weapons as something that keeps me interested, because I tend to pick one and stick with it. But playing a game with only the one weapon makes me realize how much I miss the possibility of variation.

In the end, it's cute, but not all that fun. Watch a VOD for a bit and you'll get a good enough sense.
