A great refresh on an old classic

GDmilkman

A great refresh on an old classic. This game takes an old clunker from the Atari and makes it one of the most fun and punchy dual stick shooters you'll play this side of Geometry Wars. Online leaderboards, challenges with their own leaderboards, co-op, it all really comes together into a package that's fresh and exciting. If you're looking for a twitchy fun game that will keep you engaged for one more turn to try to best your own top score if not the world's then this is a game worth diving into.
