When you feel doen and you just wanna shoot with music to guide you, this is the game for you! Upgrading and expanding your cubeship has never been more fun especially when you lose your upgrades if you collide with an enemy! So spend hours spending in-game cash upgrading your cubeship, destroying more enemies and eventually losing it.

I recommend this game to the people that likes arcade games.
My personal thoughts of this game is that it is fun to play but a bit bad graphic but you get used to it :).
It took me some time to understand the upgrade function but thats mainly beacuse i am a reatard :).
Other then that this game is pretty simple. You begin as a box shoots other boxes to get some cash. Then you buy weapons or upgrades.
So should you buy the game for the little money they ask. My answer is "yes" because i have had a lot of fun playing it :).

LOVE it.
I had no idea what I was doing at first but basically you are a box {square}, that fires (automatically) at oncoming waves (chains) of other boxes. As you go up in levels you can buy more boxes and effectively 'grow' yourself. By growing yourself your mass increases and therefore your movement slows down - however, the more boxes you add, apart from making you bigger and slower, ADDs LIVES, so each time you are hit by an enemy box you lose you of your own.
There are power ups that increase fire rate (I assume there are more, but I only took it to level 4), and you can smash yourself through the chains of enemy boxes to get powerups if you are big enough.
You need to try this one. It's an innovative idea, where getting bigger is both a strength and a weakness.
The music is A1 and really gets you going in game.
It really is a 10/10 for under $2

Gameplay is very fun, you upgrade your "ship" with more cubes that are each a weapon of your choice.
Adding more guns and making yourself bigger might make you stronger but also make it harder for you to dodge enemies or you could upgrade the few guns you have and remain smaller, making the choice is what's fun about it.
I kinda like the soundtrack but as other reviews will state, this game visual aggression is real.
I do enjoy the gameplay a lot and would recommend it on that front BUT if you are prone to seizures do NOT play this game.
