Additional Key Features

  • Unlock HARD Mode: tougher enemies, trickier platforming and more chaos!
  • Infinite Replayability: Enemies, levels and upgrades are randomly generated which makes every run unique and offers fresh gameplay.
  • Precision-based Shooting: Test your shooting accuracy as you aim for precise headshots which deal more damage than body shots.
  • Kungfu Invincibility: Swiftly kungfu dash through enemy attacks and platforming obstacles to avoid taking damage.
  • Full Controller Support: Classic twin-stick controls, but with a twist! Left analog stick and bumper controls movement: dash, jump and run. Right analog stick and bumper controls shooting and aiming. 

For the best gameplay experience, we recommend playing with keyboard and mouse. If playing on controller, we highly recommend playing with the default twin-stick controls for optimal gameplay. *This game is online only: you must be connected to the internet to play*
