hhhhhmmmmm... this is a sideways thumb, but im gonna make it a down one, let me explain, as always, worst for last.
Firts ill explain the decisive factor on the up/down vote situation. The achievements, they are mostly all about holding on to dear life, and the fact that most if not all were only achieved by less than 15% of playes, I cant in good conscience say "this is for you", even if I did enjoy most of my time with the game (except for one disgusting aspect).
So what is this game? its a kind of a bullet hell in which you dodge and shoot enemies as you are taken through the stages (an on elvator shooter, if you will), theres power ups and skills to unlock and let me just say the possitives first.
Possitives:
1- the art is cool
2-the price is affordable and the production value seems to be above what you would expect for that money
3-hits a sweet spot where its not complicated, nor exactly easy, you will die a few times as you try to know what is what and what does what, but once its all in place in your head, you ace the game.
4-its the kind of game which warrants a leaderboard (which it has), so if you are into that, you could do worse.
Now for the bad:
1- at the moment, i've played it for 1hr, i have beat the story mode (only mode im usually interested in) and then played around 10 min of endless mode... so you dont get much bang for your buck if you are not into leaderboards nor into going through the same stages but endlessly.
2-it reeks of lost potential. Unless there is a prequel or a sequel, the art, the main character the ambiance, the opening and ending scenes DO ask for AT LEAST SOME fleshing out, a story, a name, some lore, ANYTHING.... nothing?.... ok, cool :(
3-you end up beating the story mode before you even unlock or have a chance to unlock every skill
4 (and the worst)- Dubstep... the "Savant" CLEARLY loves dubstep, its all i heard through the whole game, the............ music (ugh) DOES help get a rythm, but be a dear and use headphones

OK shoot 'em up with a clunky camera, good pixel art, and awesome music by Savant, but it's SO short (30 minutes, more or less). I spent 1 buck, so... it's worth it, as long as you get it for that price.
PS: It's recommend to use proton on steam deck, in order to avoid any crashes
