To be worth a gamers time, the game must match top tier visuals with top tier gameplay, and that's not happening here.

fun little game i saw on instagram. great movement, pleasing visuals and nice, simple weapons that get the job done. easy to pick up, can be learned comfortably in about ten minutes and feels good to just relax and play.

Idk if you can have more stars after the first one, bcz my friend and I replayed the game, beat the boss again but when trying to collect the star, my friend got into lobby without it and I froze right next to the star, becoming invincible to the mobs and unable to go back to lobby without quitting by the pause menu.

Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
The sounds and soundtrack are really pleasant so I'll get the supporter pack (especially since it's so cheap) though I'd really love to see the soundtrack available separately or bundled in.
