About the Game

This is a single-player FPS where you beat up a lot of fire monsters as Mio, the cheerful sea goddess. Fire your water guns with unlimited ammo, mow down waves of enemies and feel refreshed!

Key Features

  • Fight hordes of enemies.
    As the story progresses, more monsters will appear and eventually more than 30 enemies will attack you at once. Enjoy the exhilaration of defeating enemies!
  • Shoot and shoot.
    Good news for all you trigger-happy people. You can shoot as many bullets as you want. What a surprise, you don't even need to reload!
  • Aim for the weak points.
    Most enemies have weak points. It is very beneficial to attack their weak points to inflict heavy damage. In particular, humanoid enemies always have a weak spot in their head, so be aggressive and aim for a headshot.
  • Unique friends will work with you.
    Each level will be accompanied by several allies. You will have opportunities to talk to them, so you will never feel lonely on your way.

Story
