5M agoPLayed the demo during steam next fest on pc or my steam deck, a bit stiff movement but cute and a kinda chill game (longer demo than expected) might play the full game someday. Interesting take on the gunvolt first death mechanic tuned up to more abilities for each time you die, a no cat death run i bet people are gonna try to get.
