About the game

Two buttons. Pure, explosive speed. A lightning-fast action roguelite you play with just two buttons. Forge your own combat style with builds that shift every run, and chase that rush of pure dopamine through gorgeous, fluid visuals.

Original Steam description

⚡ Two Buttons. Relentless Speed.

Remember the thrill of cutting down hundreds of enemies with just two fingers? I've reawakened that feeling — and built a roguelite around it.

No tangled controls. Just two buttons standing between you and the horde closing in from every side. Beneath that dead-simple input lies a razor-sharp battle of timing that pushes your reflexes to their absolute limit.

Your hands react before your mind can catch up. Kills erupt across the screen, and the dopamine hits fast. One run in, and "just one more" becomes impossible to resist.

🎲 A New Build Every Run — Roguelite at Its Core

No two runs are ever the same. The builds you choose mid-run completely reshape your abilities, turning every attempt into a fresh fight.

- Weapon Fusion — Combine the weapons you find on a run to unlock entirely new powers.

- Relic Unlocks — Collect and unlock relics between runs to gradually shape your own playstyle.

The real fun begins the moment you discover your perfect build among countless combinations.

🗡️ Three Warriors, Three Ways to Fight

Just two buttons, but the warrior you choose changes everything: Nana's Counter, turning an enemy's attack into an instant kill; Fei's One Inch, gathering energy and unleashing it to bring down every enemy nearby; and Soma's Awakening, rising with every drop of blood she sees until she can cut down any foe.

🎨 Directed by an Award-Finalist Eye

The visual direction comes from the art director behind a Steam Awards "Outstanding Visual Style" finalist — that same proven eye, now focused on a single experience.

Every action is brought to life by silky-smooth 2D sprite animation, now sharper than ever in HD. Every slash, dodge, and takedown explodes across the screen.

👤 Made by One Pair of Hands

Every piece of this — the feel, the fluid animation, the ever-shifting builds — was crafted by a single developer. Experience what one person's obsession can build.
