This guide covers the tricks for surviving the first 30 minutes.

FAQ

FAQ

Yes. UI and subtitles are available in both English and Japanese. Steam and mobile versions both support full localization.
A bullet-heaven roguelite where you mow down massive enemy waves with auto-attacks and try to survive 30 minutes. You only control movement; weapons fire automatically. The joy is evolving weapons until the screen fills with damage.
The mobile version is free with optional paid DLC. The Steam version is buy-to-play but extremely cheap (around 4.99 USD). Dozens of hours for the price.
You only move — weapons fire automatically. Skill comes from picking the right weapons and what to evolve, not reflexes. Accessible for non-action players.
Gennaro is a strong default — his Knife and +1 projectile passive multiply nearly every weapon damage from start to finish.
