About this game

What this game is, in the developer's words

Master a modular arsenal and survive a biomechanical nightmare in this intense cinematic shmup. Face grotesque aberrations, unlock achievements, and conquer the hardcore mode. The first level of an expanding saga!

A biomechanical nightmare comes to life in this side-scrolling shmup inspired by arcade classics.

Dive into a grotesque universe where technology and flesh fuse into living aberrations. Pilot your ship through relentless waves of biomechanical horrors in a fast-paced action shooter that combines classic R-Type gameplay with a visceral aesthetic inspired by H.R. Giger.
