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!

Played the demo, then bought the game. I have had some trouble trying to get the full game on my new phone, but that's not the devs fault. If you love old megadrive side scrolling shooters - with some difficulty, then this is absolutely for you!!! Beautiful presentation too. Rammed full of countless neat little touches. Cannot recommended highly enough. Simply fantastic game. Just one thing - can we have a sequel or 2?!?!

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.

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.

The game is amazing, let me say. It's incredibly fun hunting the bad guys. Game is a side scrolling shoot em up; you play through a level of peeons to emerge at the boss battle who is a thug that you're after. Very well done, crisp controls. I had to go with 4 stars because though the game works with my MOGA X5, the buttons are incorrect in the game with what I'm pressing on the controller and the button configuration menu doesn't really tell you much like how to use grenades and a shotgun.

It's actually a very good game! I was looking for some shooters and well, besides its gunplay, the characters with their voices too, its cool! and also for additional, this game has a very great artstyle! Like, the detail and a fit atmosphere from what they have- the cyberpunk-ed theme. The things were that, you have to pay to play fully and the screen's width was too wide and big for my phone. The game's menus and stuff was almost cropped! Maybe with better device im sure it'll be way nicer.

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!

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.

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.
