Opening caveat: I am a kickstarter backer of the game, and received this copy as a result of that

A lot of reviews comment on the fact that you're not getting a lot for your money. There's hardly any content, and it's incredibly buggy. These reviews were posted within the first day or two of release, and do not reflect the current stage of the game right now. This is, after all, an early access game. Oni-punks have been releasing near-daily updates, adding content and tweaking bugs since release. Is this a finished product? Not hardly. But what it IS is a taste of what the final game will entail.

You have a grid, you move on the grid, you attack your enemies. Conserve your ammo, choose your targets, and time your attacks properly to avoid reprisal. There are three characters, each with unique weapons and abilities. Each has a set of stages through which they must pass, along with optional side missions. Since that first release, bugs have been fixed, the stages have been improved and organized better, and the game in general just feels better as well. As I said, it's still more of a demo than anything, but it's growing steadily.

In time, you will have helper characters, along with a wider variety of heroes and weapons from which to choose. Sure, it's been a long time coming, but it's heartening to see these basic building blocks, to know that the game DOES exist. As long as the flow of updates continues to be as rapid as it has been, I, for one, will continue to recommend this game.
