Ratings and reviews

Game starts off pretty solid, and the loop is pretty addictive. However, the game is extremely unforgiving and as you get further, the controls become too clunky to be as responsive as the game demands you to be. From accidentally triggering abilities when trying to quickly aim, to the delay of switching between 2+ extreme angles to hit the tons of enemies on the screen, the game just becomes too much and not in a fun way. Maybe it's better on console/PC, but mobile is a no-go.

Overall graphics are dope. Issues need fixing: trance is useless and purely looks cool. It restricts full angle spectrum and does not launch spears far. (Enemies too close and below on boats are unhittable, and anything further than half the screen or in the air unhittable). Had to restart game to reinvest that useless upgrade. 2nd. The dotted arrows for the spear line are hard to fully see. I had to turn up my screen brightness to see it easier and I'm sitting in pitch black with laptop light

The game is well made and it's fun to play. However, the controls aren't very good on mobile. The more powers you unlock, the harder the game gets, and about 4 levels in I'm finding it nearly impossible to just fire the default shots without accidentally triggering something else.
