One reviewer mentions the "fun gun play and interesting upgrading," though they note that the upgrades don't feel "overly fun or unique." The progression system, including the ability to collect resources, develop the character, and unlock new abilities, is highlighted as a positive element.

One reviewer specifically mentions the "different enemy armor and damage types to overcome," which adds depth to the combat encounters.

❤ Base Building and Additional Modes

This additional game mode allows players to "create, defend, and improve [their] base to extract resources," providing an extra layer of strategy and progression. While the base building is noted as a positive feature, some reviewers feel it currently "suffers from a lack of QOL [quality of life] features."
