The graphics are super pixelated and retro, like it’s straight up trying to channel old-school POSTAL vibes, and it actually works really well.
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
19 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
And the story is great, and since it takes place in his sleep, which is established at the beginning of the game, it is super flexible on what is possible with story and design.
Audio

pretty above-average boom shoot game, bloody good fun and a bit repetitive like most of its genre, great sound design and music does a lot of work but the actual combat is solid. good bloody fun, i'd buy it on sale and play once
