I was floored this game was available on Android. It's one of my favorite action games on PC. Now I can play it on the go, smooth as butter, on my Pixel 5 with a Razer Kishi controller attached. The buttons aren't mapped right by default, but at least you can re-map them. This is the way mobile gaming should be done! A free download trial of a fun action-packed game that runs well on the platform and can be purchased in full for a fair price. No naggy ads or Microtransactions. Happy to buy.

I'm really enjoying this game. The bosses can be a real challenge, even on easy! (I must admit I ended up switching down to "easy" on my first play-through). "The harder the game, the more satisfying it is to beat," said me (just now). Great audio. I love the 80s stylised bit-tunes, and the voice acting adds another layer of quality and polish. Thanks, coffee Stain Publishing for a solid game not marred by overly aggressive or indeed any monetization. Yay!

This game is an absolute masterpiece. From the retro graphics to a killer score soundtrack, it has it all. I simply relish the boss mechanics, contemporary humor and movie references, voice-overs, the different eneny factions, plethora of weapons, the player choices and balance of difficulty. Major kudos to the development staff for an awesome job well done. And If you decide to make a series out of this, I'll definitely will be there to throwdown, I mean, Huntdown.

This game scratches an itch I didn't even know I had. The art is fantastic. It captures the futuristic dystopian theme perfectly. The gameplay is 2D side scrolling shooting and it is a lot of fun. Most of the time you are just shooting bad guys. But there is a little bit of strategy to each level and you get some fun weapon variety. The controls work as well as mobile controls can work. Keep making games like this and I will keep buying them.

This game is HARD, even on normal difficulty. And that's a good thing, though my thirtieth attempt at the second boss means I doubt I'll ever actually finish the game. Also the fact that checkpoints don't save between sessions is annoying, so sometimes I can't be bothered starting a session. But the TLC in this game is so obvious I don't regret the purchase at all. This one will stay on my device for a long time.

Love it! Tried the demo and bought it. But Putting aside the fact that I am a sucker for retro looking games such as this. The art style, the sound, the music, the characters, the cyberpunk setting, it all just works and it's so full of personality, a work of art. The gameplay, it's a platformer, think of metal slug series and you got the right idea, but here enough has been tweaked to feel fresh and stand out on its own. Try the demo and give it a shot!

The controls take a bit of getting used to, but are so responsive and clean that it's worth the learning curve. If you attached the game to a controller, you'd think it was a well made game from the time of snes or Sega Genesis. It's challenging too, keeps you thinking on your feet. A truly rare find, and well worth the 5 dollars for the full version. If you like Run and Gun gaming, pick up the full version for 5 dollars. You won't regret it.

Wow. I don't normally leave reviews but I played the demo and immediately bought the game lol. Awesome incredible fun. The art, the music, the gameplay. This is not just a random run and gun, you have to use some stealth and skill to beat the levels. The story and the voice acting is awesome. It is WELL worth the money I rated it 5 stars. Best 4 Bucks I ever spent. One thing I will say, I'm playing this game with a Bluetooth controller and couldn't imagine the game without it.

Worth every penny. Old school platform/shooter, challenging levels, difficulty levels increased gradually, a lot of different weapons, enemies, bosses are difficult however there are patterns. Perfect mapping with Gamesir g4s. After a long time of hit and miss with mobile games this wins all the top ranks. And I am writing this at 50% of the game beaten. Buy it, play it.

Amazing game! Full of action, platforming, and shooting! It reminds me a lot of contra or streets of rage. Perfectly tight controls makes you feel immersed in the game like youre the bounty hunter, killing enemies. Speaking of which, enemies have great variety as well as weapons. You can equip a shotgun, a machine gun, a rocket launcher, grenades and molotov cocktails and many more. Currently it is on sale for only 2.99 so it's way too much value. Recommended!
