Listed minimum requirements don't seem to be true. With 16GB of RAM and an AMD Ryzen Pro 7, the game is lagging like hell. Refunded.

A fiendish and satisfying twin-stick shooter that brings the incredible symphonic violence of HYPER DEMON to a two-dimensional canvas. An incredible depth of skill is offered for the taking here.

not a bad game beat my first run on easiest difficulty at 1.3 hr's controlling both things is neat works well on mouse and keyboard. Understood the mechanics and at the same time didn't grasp how to truly utilize it. probably will play more and maybe a guide

I felt kind of "meh" about this game playing it on the standard difficulty and was ready to drop it until I was reminded that there's an easier difficulty below that - so I dropped the difficulty down and very quickly found that I actually *hate* the late-game encounter design. There are multiple fights where I have no idea how I'm supposed to move the flower fast enough to avoid massive, swinging melee hitboxes, the number of moving parts makes it increasingly difficult to actually parse where each of my guys are (and sometimes even which is which, something which had not happened to me at all prior to that), and finding windows to actually attack becomes increasingly rare and frustrating. I spent minutes on the beetle-like boss with the long legs and huge pincers, not at risk of failure, but completely unable to land a solid hit because the wasp kept bouncing off the side of the arena, running into the boss's pincers, and being forced to recharge - or! the boss would start doing a bullet curtain attack and I would immediately need to reposition the wasp in front of the flower and blow any chance of getting an attack in. Later in that run, I ultimately died only a hit or two away from beating the last boss after constantly taking hits I could not possibly avoid and was so profoundly irritated that I instantly closed the game. I'm not feelin it.
