Joke game
You stand on the left. Enemies come from the right. You jump and shoot. That's it.

Review V1CGaming 2/5 · Nov 26, 2020

I enjoyed the simple yet challenging jump-and-shoot gameplay. I got a solid 2 hours of entertainment out of the game, and I 100-percented it. You thought you could prank me, but …

You thought you could prank me, but I pranked you back by treating your prank game the same as I would an actual game. Get pranked, Sega. Get pranked, Platinum Games. Y'all just got pranked!
