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.

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
